anyone starting at frankford for the fall of 2009?

[lolaoguntade]

yes just received notice yesterday. what about you?

[lmangano07]

congratulations, me too, are you going to the acceptance day?

Can I ask how your grades are, score on TEAS, any recomendations when I apply?

[lmangano07]

my grades are mostly a's and a few b's, my gpa is a 3.7. But, my score on the teas was only a 73. I know a good gpa is the main thing they want to see. Just make sure you meet the deadlines and follow the application instructions exactly. Let me know if you have any questions abotu the pre-reqs, b/c most people get confused with that. When will you be applying?

[lolaoguntade]

yes i am going to acceptance day... as for how i got in ..my grades were ok,,i had a really bad semester because of my health. my combined GPA was 3.4. because of time i didn't do well on the teas. I felt my scores were not high enough because of that hard semester so i sent in really good reference letters, wrote a strong essay, and requested an interview to have a chance to give my reason for the scores and with that and a lot of prayer i was accepted in the program and was told that my essay and interview was excellent... that was it

thanx for your reply...I have a 4.0 in my pre req (chem, a&p I, II, Psych, Dev psych, and Ethics) For my undergrad degree I got a 3.1, but I didnt get to study much for the teas test and scored a 68.2%...I'm hoping for the best but I dont know. Has this happened to anyone?

[lmangano07]

i dunno, they say they want a 70 and higher. I would call Aimee at admissions, and ask her, she is good like that, she will tell you
