College of Staten Island (CSI) CUNY - Spring 2025 NURSING AAS PROGRAM

Published

hey guys, I'm applying to the College of Staten Island Nursing AAS program for the Spring 2025 semester. I already submitted my application and my NLN-NEX scores. I took the NLN the same day the applications opened. I scored the 84th Percentile (COMP 245/300) first try. Anyone in the CSI CUNY nursing program at CSI RN..any tips and if you got in what was your NLN score, GPA (pre-req AND overall)? thank you!!

I have (MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME - PLEASE DO NOT POST NAMES PER TERMS OF SERVICE) for BIO 150, he goes very very fast and talks fast so its extremely hard to understand him. 

I scored over a 75% in every section.

Verbal- 75th percentile

Math- 92nd percentile

science- 80th perecntile

I had a 245 composite overall out of 300 (245/300) and placed 84th percentile overall.

OMG you did great and am sure you will be accepted. You can't compare 245 to 111 LOL. Seriously can you put me up with math that's my main problem. Can you send me your math note or how you studied for math part LOL

(MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME - PLEASE DO NOT POST NAMES PER TERMS OF SERVICE) is good.  Study his homework's then slides also ask him what you will be expecting on the exam, communicates well with students

Thank you!! But don't forget you took the NLN PAX exam which was graded out of 200. This semester is the first semester of the new NLN NEX exam graded out of 300. So your score was 111/200 and I think its 61st percentile. Just retake the exam and aim for 80th percentile and above. 

I studied the online NLN prep bundle and the math prep on the NLN website helped me so much. I first purchased the exam and then took it before studying. I looked at the questions I got wrong and went on YouTube and searched how to do those problems. Keep doing that over and over again until you get 90s+

(MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME - PLEASE DO NOT POST NAMES PER TERMS OF SERVICE) is nice but I didn't do so well on the first test, I gotta lock in for the next 3. I desperatley need an A in his class. Does he curve final grades?

his first exam was from the homework when I had him, most of his exam questions are from the homework and he did drop the exam with the lowest grade.

Really?  What's the essence of getting the prep test from the website then?

Thank you. I know this may be weird but do you remember some of the words on the verbal portion? So I can get a clue for how hard it will be? I memorized all the words that were on the practice test but they may not even show up on the test
