How they evaluate prerequisites points?

Hi there,

I am a pre-nuring student at FSCJ, and trying get into ADN program . I am all set to apply for the program except HESI. I will be doing HESI at the end of this January to enroll for the fall term. However, I am having a hard time to calcualte my points. I know that they count A=4, B=3, and C= 2, but I was told my someone that possible prerequsires points is 120 or something. How is it possible to get 120 with few perquisites classes? Can somebody explain me about point system? I really am eagar to know for where I stand! Thanks!!

Unless you take 30 courses in which you earn an A, you will never get 120 points. My advice to you is, just do what you need: take those pre-reqs, exam, whatnot, and don't stress out much. Let the admin worry about the calculating of the points and deciding who gets chosen.

Doing a quick search for FSCJ - I find Florida State College in Jacksonville. While they do only require 11 hours to apply to their program (44 points for all As) there are a total of 30 hours of general ed classes (120 points).

Thus it would appear that while the other gen ed courses can be taken along with nursing courses - they award extra points if you have already taken them.

Best advice - take the 11 hours and apply.. if for some reason you don't get selected first time, then take some of the gen ed courses until the next application period and have the extra points to help you out.

Best of luck.
