How hard is it to get into Bergen Community College RN DAy program?

U.S.A. New Jersey

I'm taking my pre-requisits there and I'm thinking of trying to get into their program. I never really considered it because I had heard that you need a 4.0 GPA plas get a 95% on the entrance exam. The 4.0 I think is doable but a 95% on an entrance exam...I don't now. I suck at standardized exams. 85% ok..I think I can manage..but 95%..not too sure.

Anyone go there or know anything about it? Thanks!

Has anyone here in the Nursing program taken any of their prereqs at Bergen CC? I've never gone there and am currently in an accelerated bsn program in Virginia. However, I'm from NJ and Bergen has a very inexpensive online course for Ethics available. Has anyone ever taken a course with Dr. Boziecevic? I dont know if Ethics is a requirement for your program but I'm thinking it may be so I figured I would ask :) Thank you so much!

I agree with Iris! If you already have a bachelors degree I would strongly suggest going into an accelerated BSN. Most are 12-16 months long and you come out with your bachelors in Nursing. I believe the Associates programs are about 2 years? So to go to school for less time and come out with a BSN which is one step ahead of an Associates made sense. If youre interested in getting your masters or continuing on you'll need to get your BSN at some point so definitely think about the BSN program if you aready have a previous Bachelors degree! Good luck!
