Thank you. Yes I have seen this attachment as well. My counselor at a CC said they prefer Chem 140 over Gen Chem but I was wondering if that affects your chances of getting in. Did you get accepted? 

I how they still do cause that’s all that was available to me at the time. All my other requirements are in good shape, so fingers crossed ?

OK thanks! The nursing email at CSULB is not so great. She doesn’t answer questions they just re post what is already written on the website. Any advice how else I could talk to someone from the nursing program other than that email?

Yeah so Im a Csulb student so I have access to their counseling services. That’s how I got in contact, not sure how else you would be able to unfortunately. You could try joining their zoom counseling times but they ask for a Csulb student Id number 

Ahh OK. I can set up a meeting with their counseling department. I have talked to them before. I just didn’t know if they knew all the answers to nursing questions or not. Thanks so much!

No problem! I hope it helps and all goes well  

So just to be sure regarding the TEAS - Is it the "ATI Remote Proctor" that's accepted by the school or the "Institution Remote Proctor" so that we can specify CSULB? Or does it not matter?

The accept either institution or ATI proctoring. As long as you send the transcripts to csulb. I personally took mine institutionally remotely proctored by csulb. 

Do we know what the average scores students had, that were admitted to past cohorts?

Yes here are the averages for the past. I found it in this website. https://www.csulb.edu/college-of-health-human-services/school-of-nursing/undergraduate-BSN-faq-and-application  

scroll to frequently asked questions and click the last question that asks “is it difficult to be accepted...” and you’ll find this picture

Question, for the Chemistry prerequisite, they only take the first chem class taken, right?  I took general Chemistry a while back and didn't get a good grade, so I took another chem class that was both general + organic chem, so I was wondering if that would replace the gen class since it is new material.

Im not sure but when I filled out the application I know they let you put more than one course for chem, Microbiology, and anatomy + physiology

Ahh okay, cause I don't know if I should apply for the school or not ?. 

My stats are:

GPA (GE) : 4.0 = 2 pts

TEAS OVERALL : 98.7% = 1.97

TEAS READING : 97.9% = 1.96

SCIENCE (GPA): If they only accept my first gen chem class: 3.58, but if they allow my other chem class [gen + organic]: 4.0.
