1. Help! Cuny Hunter Nursing Program?

   Tallulahbelle replied to Faithx3's topic in New York

   I would love to know the answer to this question as well. I, too, received a D last semester. I was beside myself. I am taking it *again* currently with the same professor and I am going through tremendous amounts of anxiety over this. I am paying a ...

2. Nursing Program at Hunter College NLN Score

   Tallulahbelle replied to annag425's topic in New York

   I guess I didn't. I haven't received anything via my e-mail. I am still taking my last pre-req though (which shouldn't matter). Just seeing what the general NLN scores/GPAs were for this year's admittance :).

3. Nursing Program at Hunter College NLN Score

   Tallulahbelle replied to annag425's topic in New York

   Question: For all of you who got in, do you mind sharing your GPA and NLN score? (also, are any of you still taking your last pre-req by chance or did you finish everything up before this semester?)

4. Nursing Program at Hunter College NLN Score

   People received a preliminary e-mail?

5. Students are cut-throat!

   Tallulahbelle replied to livenlearn08's topic in General Students

   I can't tell if that "30 years olds are too old to be in college" was sarcastic, joking, trolling or really ignorant? Either way, it really is an incredibly ignorant statement considering 1) the age range on these boards and the age range of people ...

6. Nursing Program at Hunter College NLN Score

   Tallulahbelle replied to annag425's topic in New York

   Oh and additionally, it's really not as simple as 'just take it again' for a lot of people either since we have a lot of time issues (we are older adults who have been doing the pre-reqs for quite some time and are at the cusp of starting a program)....

7. Nursing Program at Hunter College NLN Score

   Tallulahbelle replied to annag425's topic in New York

   Actually that wasn't my point. My point is I still have a huge chance of getting in with my 3.89 GPA since that's 50% of the criteria. If I listened to the random (erroneous?) 'facts' thrown around here, I would think I don't have a chance.

8. Nursing Program at Hunter College NLN Score

   Tallulahbelle replied to annag425's topic in New York

   Anna, you said "You still have a good chance of getting in but you need to score at least in the 140s to 150s on the nln." Are there that many people who have scores in the 140s and 150s? I ask this because I see these numbers thrown around as if it...

9. Organic Chemistry help?

   Tallulahbelle replied to Tallulahbelle's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Ironically, I took the rest of my pre-reqs at BMCC (great professors) and just transferred into Hunter this semester and this is my last pre-req (for Hunter). I already applied to their program for the fall so I can't really drop since I am in a time...

10. Organic Chemistry help?

    Tallulahbelle replied to Tallulahbelle's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Wow. We literally went up to the cut-off of O-Chem topics and that was that. It was more an overview of Chemistry topics including a little bit of Bio-Chem but mainly inorganic chemistry concepts. I wish we had touched O-chem topics. I wonder if that...

11. Organic Chemistry help?

    Tallulahbelle replied to Tallulahbelle's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I may try a tutor. Perhaps hearing things explained and having someone see where I am going wrong will help.

12. Organic Chemistry help?

    Tallulahbelle replied to Tallulahbelle's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Hm. Perhaps I just need to read things over more? What I have been doing is first going through my current semester's text which is a bit dense very slowly. I take notes. Then I go through my other textbook to compare what I have taken notes on and s...

13. Organic Chemistry help?

    Tallulahbelle replied to Tallulahbelle's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I actually explained that I received an A in Gen Chem which I took not even 2 semester ago. I did very well. It was taught in a progressive manner and I had a good grasp on it. What I explained was on this first test is not a 'review' of Gen Chem top...

14. Organic Chemistry help?

    Tallulahbelle replied to Tallulahbelle's topic in Pre-Nursing

    We went from chapters 1 and 2 in the textbook to chapter 7 (skipping around). The 'sample' test is all about conformations, orbital hybridization, nomenclature, radicals. This is the first test of the semester. It doesn't seem very progressive but ra...

15. Organic Chemistry help?

    Tallulahbelle posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    I am really, really struggling with O-chem currently. I am doing fine in the lab because we work in groups and to some extent things make sense. However, I am currently at Hunter College where there is 1 (yes only 1) O-chem professor and he is outrag...
