do I have a chances

It's a very competitive program and the higher your gpa, the more points you get. It's too late, though, to apply to get into this Fall's semester but you'd be able to apply to get into next Spring semester.

If anyone can answer for me what is my chances of getting into WCCCD nursing program with a 3.33 prerequisite GPA

Eng =A

Psy=A

BIO 240=B

BIO 250=B

BIO 295=B

I got an 72 on the Teas test. I heard theres no waiting list. I am considering retaking one of Biology's to raise my GPA on my prerequisite. I heard of a points system. but is all hope is lost for me???? My overall currently 3.78

The points system of which you've heard breaks down as follows: max 60 pts for your GPA (ex: 60pts for a 4.0 GPA), max 20 pts for your TEAS score, max 10 pts for having taken all courses at WCCCD, max 5 pts for having finished all co-reqs, and max 5 pts for having some sort of (certified) prior medical experience. (At least, that was the points breakdown when I applied.) As you can see, your GPA carries the most weight, but the TEAS score is quite important as well. Whether or not a 3.3 GPA and 72 TEAS score will get you in depends on the scores of the other applicants. Keep in mind that WCCCD looks at two GPAs: the average GPA of just your pre-reqs, and the GPA of your pre-reqs and whatever co-reqs (DT 130, BIO 252, ENG 120, etc) you've taken; they use whichever is higher. (Again, this may have changed - I applied in June 2009, before the TEAS replaced the NET, so things may have changed.) If your overall GPA of 3.78 includes classes not associated with the program (math, etc), you can ignore that - the nursing dept doesn't look at your overall GPA if it includes irrelevant classes.

Anyway, criswithnoh's right - it's too late (by just a few days) to apply for Fall 2010, but you have until the last day of June to apply for Spring 2011. That's not enough time to re-take anything, but you could always apply and then take a class or two over in Summer - if you don't get in, you'll have at least a bit of a higher GPA to apply for Fall 2011.

Good luck! :)

thank you!!
