Discussion Hunter College Pre-Nursing + NLN-PAX RN

Published

Hello, fellow prospective nursing students!

I see that there aren't many threads for Hunter pre-nursing students to discuss GPA and NLN scores, so I thought to start this one. From what I heard, current average scores are lower than the previous year's because this year was the launch of NLN's new pre-admission exam, containing 160 questions rather than the former 214 (I think it was).

Please post your thoughts and scores below. I'll post my stats if this thread catches on haha

I wish everybody lots of luck!

To jump start this post, I would like to comment my stats with which I applied to the Fall 2017 program with last month.

GPA: 3.85

NLN: 132 ~88th percentile

Thoughts:

This spring semester seems to be more difficult than fall semester. Waiting for May impatiently. I'm unsure of whether my scores will mean an in or an out. Hoping for the best.

Sounds good. Do you think a lot of people are mainly getting 130s?

Nice! May I ask how you prepared for the exam?

In all honesty I only studied for a week. I scored in the 99th percentile for math 92 for English and 90th for science placing me in the 97th overall. I used the exam book the hunter website said and did all the problems

Lol I guess your score will rank you in the first 100, hopefully. Nice work í ½í±

Did anyone get any updates from NursingCAS? My transcript was verified, and I'm wondering what the next step is?

Is it time to wait for May?
