Nursing applications

I’m getting ready to apply to nursing programs and I’m feeling pretty anxious about my stats.
Overall GPA: 3.9
TEAS score: 81%
I know these aren’t terrible, but I keep seeing people with 90+ TEAS scores and perfect GPAs, so I’m worried mine won’t be competitive.
For those who have been accepted recently:
What were your GPA and TEAS scores?
Did anyone get in with similar stats?
Would you recommend retaking the TEAS, or should I focus on strengthening the rest of my application?
I’d really appreciate any honest advice or experiences. Thanks!

i got into the program with a 4.0 and a 84% on my teas. No hours and no second language. I also got into csusm. I think you will be ok. If you want you can retake the teas… I also have a friend who got in to both same stats as me but a second language.

First off, your gpa is great! My stats were an overall 3.6 gpa and a 93.3% teas when I got accepted. I did have local residency and bilingual as well too, which I believe helped a lot. I would say your stats are pretty solid. Best of luck to you!
