If I were you I would retake the Hesi. The first time I made an 85, and when I retook it the next app period I made an 91 which gave me 6 more points which is a lot for simply retaking a test. Not to mention the test weighs more over all. The extra admission points are about 7%, GPA around 9%, courses taken 29%, and Hesi around 56%. When I applied last semester it seemed like everyone who was getting in had an A or above so I decided to retake, and I am glad I did.

I am not sure about the new changes. I better get in the semester as I have already taken speech, and spanish. I will be mad if it was a waste especially if they tell me I have to take additional pre reqs when I have already finished.

I still have not gotten my email. I tried to call yesterday a few times just to see if they would give me an idea of when they might be going out, but it always went straight to voice mail.

I did notice on the Website that it shows disputes needed to be turned in by the 18th, and it says they will be cleared up with in two weeks which would be May 1st. I started thinking that maybe they have disputes which they are dealing with, and have to solve those first. I know last semesters issues and delays I was told were due to handling disputes (more than likely why they gave themselves 7 days). I do hope this doesn't stretch out until next Wed.

Anybody else heard anything?

I just called Brookhaven, and got through. I asked if they thought emails would go out this week or next week. I was told that they THOUGHT emails would more than likely go out on MONDAY.

thank u so much for the info on disputes, coolpeach.
i've been checking my gmail like crazy.


let's all try to have a nice relaxing weekend....

[coolpeach]

I don't know about relaxing...lol. I have started in on Spring cleaning which is what I do when I am stressed. At least when the news comes next week I will have a really clean house. If I haven't heard anything by Tuesday I will start in on the baking phase as everything will already be clean. By Wednesday I should have a gillion cupcakes, and 20 loafs of banana bread.

baking?
that reminds me of izzie on grey's anatomy when she baked like crazy while dealing with denny's death.

Hey...its a true way to cope, and if I get a rejection letter I can sit in my clean house and drown my sorrows in baked goods until I pop.

[coolpeach]
