Broward College May 2017

Published

Anyone Applying to the May 2017 program? I wanted to get into the January program but I was missing a math class and couldn't complete it in time for the January program.

I read this from Jan 2017, I wanted to be sure if it's correct:

To calculate your pre-req GPA (grades from ENC1101, BSC2085, BSC2085L, BSC2086 and BSC2086L), you can use the following:

For 3 credit classes:

A = 12 points

B = 9 points

C = 6 points

For 1 credit classes (LABS):

A = 4 points

B = 3 points

C = 2 points

Add up the total points and divide by 11. This is your pre-req GPA. Your pre-req GPA DOES NOT show on your degree audit.

Based on your pre-req GPA, the points are awarded as follows:

1 point = 2.5

2 points = 2.6]

3 points = 2.7

4 points = 2.8

5 points = 2.9

6 points = 3.0

7 points = 3.1

8 points = 3.2

9 points = 3.3

10 points = 3.4

11 points = 3.5

12 points = 3.6

13 points = 3.7

14 points = 3.8

15 points = 3.9

16 points = 4.0

One more question, did you have to re-take the Hesi when applying for the next term.

nope i did not have to retake it.

you must have a 2.5 or higher gpa

they look at A&P1 AND 2 plus lab, and ENC1101

if your gpa is 2.5 or more with those calculated, you're good

HESI isn't hard and it's not easy

it took me 3 trys to pass all of the sections.

We all got this tho!!

I'm terrified of the Hesi LOL. If i get a decent overall score and one section with 75, I'm going to settle for that. I'm Ok with the Pre req GPA. Hope to be classmates soon

as long as you get over a 75 in each section they're good lol

thats all they care about.

i hope so too! good luck!

Whats your gpa??

If they want ENC1101, A&P 1 and 2 with Labs, 3.9...If not I'm screwed, my cumulative is not that great.

To be honest grades don't mean anything to me, but unfortunately in this society we are treated like numbers, we all go thru hard times and nobody knows the story behind good or bad grades, we change majors, we change schools, what matter is that we have the potential and passion for a career, do not get discourage guys, we can all make this happens, keep your positive thoughts, affirmations, whatever work for you, but we all got this. I should do the Hesi and get that over with, but I feel like I have to study a bit more

i agree with you a 120% !! I hate that we are looked at by that and not our passion and drive for it. I myself do not show well on paper as far as grades,i'm decent but not a all A student, but my hands on work is not comparable. I love patient contact i love helping it makes my heart happy, but we don't get graded on that sadly. i will push through regardless and i will become a nurse with out a doubt, i just hope this is my time, i have been through so many obstacles. We all got this!
