Hiiiiiii

I'm scheduled to take mine December 4th. I'm so nervous. Melissa Raymond is amazing. I took her for A&P 1 and 2. However, she also teaches micro and I heard she is just as amazing

Hi I’m interested in applying to bmcc nursing program for the fall, but I’m a Lehman student currently. I have a 4.0 in my prerequisites but I’m not sure how to register for Kaplan test. Do I need to be a bmcc student first and then register to take it?

Hi @Julia Arnolds , yes, you have to be a student for one semester to apply to the program to apply. Once you are eligible and submit an application, they will schedule you in for the Kaplan. You might have to take a math class since they don't take any other transfer to the math required for the program. Good luck!

I had Professor S. Salm for micro. She is amazing! I was so interested in micro after everyone warned me how hard it was. She really seems like she cares about her students.

Also, I just took the Kaplan this morning. Anyone else? I got an 88% overall. Was hoping to do better on science but I had a terrible AP1 prof at BMCC.

I just finished taking the Kaplan. I recieved a 79% on the test. I believe I have a 3.83 GPA for the prerequisites and a 4.0 overall. The writing portion was surprisingly difficult. I'm just glad it's over. Now, we wait

I got a 76% on my Kaplan but hopefully my 3.83 prerequisites average saves my a**. the grammar and science killed me ?

I did a 78% on the kaplan, 3.8 GPA for PCI and 4.0 overall.. does anyone know how to convert the kaplan and GPA to the 50 and 50?

I heard they calculate 50 for kaplan and 50 from GPA... and now, we wait... she said by end of Dec., we shouls hear.. **crosses fingers

good luck everyone..

The writing was def. difficult, I had to revisit questions because they were confusing.. smh

The science portion was weirdly written... the questions, I mean... ??‍♀️

I think she is literally just dividing the scores in half and adding them together and then its pretty much the highest scores get in. At least that's my interpretation of her breakdown from the few times I pretty much stalked her with questions in her office.

Let's keep our fingers crossed!

Trying to see how to calculate my GPA to the half...

Yes! ???? hoping for the best. I think a bunch of people took it today too... are you applying for the day or night?
