   ^^ not true. Last acceptance to traditional Generic Pathway program will be Fall 2013. Your C in orgo is fine as long as you're applying for entry in Fall 2013.

   When I took orgo at hunter it was manageable, although it wad the first time in my life I needed to get a tutor. I think orgo is one of those subjects that is dreaded everywhere. I know of people who took it at brooklyn college who felt the same way;...

   Hey, They consider overall GPA from all schools, so if you're a transfer student you'll need to send in transcripts from all schools. I didn't apply to any other nursing programs, but I'm sure other people did. I took A&P 1 at Hunter and did TERR...

   I had an elective course that was just 'credit' when I applied on nursingcas and it didn't get converted to a letter grade or effect my GPA at all. You are allowed to take classes as credit/no credit, but the pre-reqs can't be.

   5 point difference in NLN, is a bigger difference than a few decimal places GPA (3.5 and 4.0 is only a .5 difference). Also, the NLN is a national test so there are the same number of questions for each student and the results compare you to other te...

   The website says: Acceptance composite score for admittance to the Upper division is as follows:Cumulative GPA (50%)NLN Pre-RN Exam Score (50%). So it is the average of both grades. I'm sure there are people who get in with a 3.0 because of their NLN...

   Bk100,In a way, you're right-they do consider NLN more than GPA. Think about it: the composite score is basically a students NLN and GPA combined. If one student had a 4.0 GPA but only got a 135 on the NLN, the composite score would be a 139. Whereas...

    Technically it can go to 200, but what I think she meant was not very many people actually do achieve above a 165. She said that generic program applicants that are accepted generally have a 145-155, and that accelerated applicants accepted generally...

    Hey, As for your GPA and NLN scores, it's definitely possible to get in with them. Katie's GPA and NLN are amazing, so there is really no question there. But I also have a 3.56 GPA and got a 149 on the NLN and am nervous. At this point, getting in re...

    I mean, the NLN site says 200....but I think its nearly impossible to score that high. At the open house, the nursing advisor said 165 was the highest score possible, and generic applicants should aim for 145-155.

    That's amazing!! Congrats! I went to the nursing open house on Thursday and they mentioned that the highest score on the NLN is really a 165, and that they want the students applying to the generic program to be within 145-155. So with a 3.94 GPA and...
