Your stats are pretty good! Good luck to you ?
Hey guys, I've been thinking about this lately...
On the application it says "The applicant may only submit one specific work or volunteer experience in which they have directly worked with patients with 100 or more hours of service within the last 2 years"
I'm sure some people have submitted both volunteer and health related work experiences, but if the application states "or" are they taking both into consideration? Do I make sense lol? ?
I'm just curious if having both will increase ones chances.

I was confused about this as well. According to ----------------- in the nursing department at CSULA, You’re supposed to submit as many experiences as you can, but they will only count one towards your application. Supposedly having more than one experience does not matter since they only count one, but I feel like they are only human and will probably notice you did more than one thing and take that into consideration. But who knows for sure.... LOL
I have a questions for everyone here lol. Did anybody submit a personal statement under “other” ? Just curious....
