getting into nursing school

[jetoria]

I am in the process of applying to nursing school. Does anyone have any tips or secrets to getting in? My school is very competetive, so any extra help would be great. Thanks!

When I applied the classes you had done and the grades figured into the application. I had to take the entrance exam then my classes and grades were somehow figured into that score which gave me an advantage (I already had an associate degree so my pre-reqs were almost done). I don't know if this is the practice at other schools.
