Every nursing school strives to admit students who will be successful in completing their program and passing the NCLEX(®). Many schools use standardized testing, such as the Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS) V, as part of their admission criteria. This study was conducted to set an institutional benchmark of the TEAS V composite score, as recommended by the test developers. Having a benchmark would help the authors' school of nursing to identify students who were more likely to be successful during the first semester of their nursing studies. Using past students' composite TEAS V scores and ATI RN Fundamentals of Nursing 2010 Assessment results, a benchmark was identified.
每所护理学院都努力录取能够成功完成课程并通过美国国家执业护士考试(NCLEX®)的学生。许多学校将标准化测试,如学术基本技能测试(TEAS)V,作为录取标准的一部分。本研究按照测试开发者的建议,旨在设定TEAS V综合分数的机构基准。设定这样一个基准将有助于作者所在的护理学院识别出在护理学习第一学期更有可能取得成功的学生。利用往届学生的TEAS V综合分数和2010年ATI护理基础评估结果,确定了一个基准。
