getting into nursing school

I applied to Baker University School of Nursing-BSN program. Originally 280 applied and only 45 get in. 90 were asked to come in for an interview and I was one of them. So now my chances are basically 50/50 now. I have been a CNA for over 2 years, volunteered at 3 different medical facilities and I have a 3.43 GPA.They say you have to have a 2.7 to be considered at all but the average student accepted has a 3.5/3.6. My interview went really really well but now I am basically freaking out. I could find out anytime from now untill the 15th :confused:...I cant stop checking the mailbox and am driving myself absolutely crazy. I keep going over everything I said during my interview and wondering what the think, what I could have done better..etc. :uhoh3: Any advice anybody? I can hardly stand waiting anymore and am making myself sick. I keep myself busy busy busy and am working 70+hrs a week but I can't get it out of my head! HEEELLLPPPP!!!

    Do you live in MI? Just curious cause I do and theres a lot of Baker's hear. I don't know if I can give any advice I applied in June and was supposed to hear in September so it was really grueling although I got very lucky and actually got my letter the last week in Aug.! I was so nervous I actually would be up at night thinking about it so I don't know how to fix that. Just remember it will pass :)

    If I tell you not to think about it, it would be a lie. I just went through my waiting game a few days ago too and it ended with my acceptance to my #1 school choice. I got in with a 3.5 GPA. With that said, be confident in yourself. Good luck to you.
