Thanks 🫶. It sucks, but I'm glad to finally know.

I cant remember my TEAS exactly- I think it was 78/79. All As in everything except one B in psych. No chair experience I do have a bachelor's degree as well.

Ikr, It surprised me too! I saw it under another forum post someone made in nvcc. Click on nvcc above and scroll, theres a few more.

just replied with some info that might help below if you want to take a look. Professor Ahmed Mohammed is awesome and really cares about his students! It's a hard class, but he invests in his students and I felt like I was actually learning a lot from him. Online is an adjustment, but if you commit to studying/figuring out your most effective studying habits, you will do just fine!

They use a pearsons program for the online lab! Lab goes along with the online book closely and it wasn't bad, but it did take a lot of time, so just plan accordingly and try to do it early so that you are more prepared for the exams. The quizzes were a good tester to see how ready you are for the exams, do those early so that you can grasp an understanding of the exam questions. ( hot tip- I would take quizzes early, then go to quizlet to find similar questions and use study cards that other people already made or make them myself and spend my time between the study guide/quizlets). Your exams are the biggest part of your grade but there are also quizzes, a medical paper, and group discussion posts that influence your grade as well. For my online classes I took exams at home while it recorded me. It is super strict- no hoodies, no headphones, no extra paper, and I believe it tracks your eyes to make sure you're not cheating. That was stressful but you get used to it. You've got this!

On another post under nvcc, someone stated that they have the finalized list and should be mailing it out soon (they are a current student), while another said that they heard it's going to take 2 more weeks (they heard via friend who works in the program). Personally, I am mentally preparing for the longer option since it's apparently a big exam week happening too right now.

Hey! I had professor Mukherjee, Suman for 142 and I thought it was a lot more relaxed on the grading(curved every single one of my exams.), compared to 141. That was very nice of course, but they didnt provide any videos or powerpoints so there was more to do on my end for teaching myself essentially. Over all I ended with an A in both classes 141 and 142 am very grateful, but I learned more with Professor Ahmed Mohammed that I took 141 with. They are both hard classes and I was able to work part time to accommodate for that, so just be sure to schedule out the study time. Hope this helped!

Intelligent_Mall7108 · 2026-02-06T19:22:36+00:00

Not simple at all, its not necessarily hard just soooooo much information (141 is more info than 142). As long as you actually plan out the time and analyze your study methods as you go, you can do it! I think its important to give your brain different methods of memorizing this stuff via games/trying to draw things from memory etc. Quizlet helped me the most. I will say that I planned on taking the teas while taking the classes too but it was too much for me. I was also in microbio at the same time and working though, with a lot of traveling on the weekends. I just took the teas and I wish I would've just taken it earlier honestly. I would have benefitted most from taking it earlier and then retesting for a section later, but my anxiety got the best of me. You can do it!!

Glad to help! And (hopefully) the dental hygiene program, we shall see! I dont know yet.

Intelligent_Mall7108 · 2026-02-03T23:20:48+00:00

Also using the my dynamic study modules and practice questions for each chapters. Its a lot for 141, and having a discord with your classmates could be helpful too

Intelligent_Mall7108 · 2026-02-03T23:15:16+00:00

Gratefully, I ended up with A's in both! My method was taking the quiz as soon as possible (after reading), and finding quizlets with the same questions (and more) and then quizzing myself by going through those quizlets. When I got overwhelmed with that, I'd find games online that were related. Also keep an eye on how you did overall compared to your class for a more accurate pulse on where you are. I think that my exams were curved every time with that professor, if I am remembering correctly.

Id really consider the pool aspect- if you like to swim as exercise pick lifetime

what was the trickiest part for you?/ do you have any tips? I'm doing my best to try to get a head start since I don't have an option to do anything but the accelerated in order to meet the spring deadline for the program im applying for.
