Bergen Community College Nursing Evening 2015

Published

Hey everyone, I know its early but I was just wondering who was going to apply for the 2015 Evening Nursing program. I have attempted to apply for the 2014 day program but was denied due to the fact that my "Chemistry" prerequisite class was unacceptable. Anyways, I was hoping we could all help each other out when the time comes.

:D

Im at a 83.67

I really wish I did better but that stuff was nothing like the stuff in the book...

I hope its enough to get in. It seems like alot of people did well above at least a 85

I'm sitting at an 88 and I'm worried. You never know what could happen. :nailbiting:

Anyone know, if anything else is considered for admission?

Ive heard mix things but majority of it is based on the HESI. I think they accept 10 out of county students and the rest are in county

I found someone at Bergen who said this:

"they base their decision on your HESI score and residency only; GPA isn't considered. When I was accepted, I asked (MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME - PLEASE DO NOT POST NAMES OF THOSE IN YOUR PROGRAM PER TOS) in the Admissions office if they considered GPA at all and she said "no". I actually looked at the list of accepted students; we were all ranked according to our test score only. She said that Bergen Co. students also received priority consideration."

I hope this will settle your stomachs or maybe make it worse?

Either way we are all in this together and I hope everyone single one of us gets in.

I saw and read the same thing^^^... I was also reading the posts form last year's evening program and people who had 74's and 76's got in.. So hopefully we can make it. I just find it crazy how GPA counts for nothing :/

I have confirmed the following with Elsa about two months ago---The HESI exam score contributes for 3/5 and GPA as the rest to mark the candidate's place on the list (e.g., Exam score: 90, GPA: 3.5 = 89). The candidate is then placed on a percentile ranking list. Furthermore, approximately 70 to 90 seats are available for each term. The program had over 300 applicants at that time.

See, now that makes more sense.. I've read a couple of times that gpa means nothing and I was like whaaaaaaat :no: So hopefully that helps us out. Last day of testing and the average is a 74.5 as of now

Hi Guys! i took my test on Monday the 10th, i got a score of 84.67. I'm wondering....where do we go to find out what the average score is???? Good luck to everyone!

Go to your evolve and when u see the page with your score there is a plus sign next to it i believe on the left side. Press that and you can see all the sections you took. From there open each one and you should see at the top class average next to your grade. Calculate all 6 grades and divide by 6. Thats the average. Last time i checked, it was 74%
