I have decided to start a thread for HCC future nurses that are applying for class beginning 2015 of spring. I would like us all to be able to share and relate to one another, while experiencing this exciting moment. I know it may seem a little early but better sooner then later. This will be my last semester before I can apply to the program. I am registered to take micro with lab and humanities fall 2014. I will be able to submit my application in right after my grades are posted. The deadline for the 2015 spring class is June 1st if I am not mistaken. How is everyone else holding up?
I believe they would only look at your overall GPA as a tie breaker. You only need to calculate your prerequisite GPA.I believe Gradius is good at calculating the GPA. Ask him to check it out.
Yeah I know they use overall as a tie breaker... but why is my prereq gpa a 3.57 but my AS gpa on my transcript a 3.5?? Ugh it's so confusing!! lol

Because you have less grades for your prereqs (21 credits) compared to your AS which will be more.
Example: pretend prereqs were only 3 classes and you had an A in all 3 for a 4.0 average. That's 9 credits at 12 grade points each (A = 4 grade points x 3 credits). 3x12 = 36, 36/9 = 4.0 GPA
But then say your AS was only 4 classes, but 12 credits. 3 As and a B = 45 grade points /12 credits = 3.75GPA. The more grades you have the more your GPA can drop.
Make sense?

Ohhhh, okay thanks! So that means our prereq gpa is not the same as our AS? Lol I was worried. Thanks for clearing it up though.
Did anyone figure out how to do the poll for what campuses/times people are choosing??

Only SILVACH24 can do that since she originated this thread. SILVACH24, if you still can't figure it out, go back to the HCC Spring 2013 and PM the person who created that thread, "Rachanee" is her name I think, how she did it. Tell her the guy that originally suggested the poll for that thread sent you.

Hey silv, words of encouragement, you'll do great in life cycle and nutrition. Took them this semester online, really easy :)
