Here I go again

Specializes in ER/Ortho.

I applied to Brookaven's Nursing program last semester, and was so hurt when I got my rejection email. I had a 3.71 GPA, had nine points out of 13 on my classes taken score, and made a 84.65 on the Hesi A2 for 9.65 points which gave me a total of 22.36, and I believe the cutoff of the top 40 was about 27.

I am applying again next week after retaking chemistry, and upping my GPA to 4.0. I took a few more classes which gives me 12 out of 13 class points, and I get 3 points for having applied before. I retook the Hesi A2 and got a 90.37 so I get 15.37 points for it. This will bring my total to 34.37 points out of 45.

I just feel like I have been going down this road forever, and I want in. I feel really good about the 34.37. I truely hope this is enough to get me in. The only thing I can do at this point to raise it is take one more class for 1 point, and raise my Hesi A2 the remaining 9.63 points to 100.

Wish me luck the emails will get sent out beginning April 24 so I am going to be on pins, and needles until then.
