IRSC Spring 2016 hopefuls!

Published

Hello everyone. I'm currently enrolled in my last set of pre-reqs for the RN program. In my microbiology classs, I noticed there is high anxiety because the applicant pool looks strong this year and 90% of my class are nursing applicants. I would like to start a support group, for passing along information, questions, advice, or just emotional guidance. We can all be nurses. We can all do it. Let's help each other get there! Does anyone have any tips for the NLN exam? Unfortunately, I have class and cannot attend the free review sessions.

It's almost time! !!!!

Out of curiosity... What scores were alternates last year? Does anyone know? Like if someone got 135 or 140, I wonder if that would be alternate-ish..or just a plain NO.

Sydney, It is hard to tell. I seen one post from a previous forum that said points in that range got in. I do not know how creditable that post was or which nursing program they were referring about.

Yeah I wonder. as an overall score range, it seems possible

I was wondering as well what the alternates got in with. I am feeling not so confident about getting in with my total points only being a 147.

The highest I've heard of was on this forum actually. 184 and the lowest I've heard of was 135. The girl got 111 on the NLN, and 135 all together. Sounds like at least an alternate to me

chlsea, I know what you mean. I do not feel completely safe with my score either. I probably have a 50/50 chance. I wish the school would post past trends and applicant pools. That would clear a lot of questions they probably get.

I think what drives everyone crazy is how nobody knows for sure what to think ....

I talked to a classmate who said she called and asked how long it will take for the emails to be sent and they told her 6-8 weeks! Hopefully it doesn't take that long..

That's too long.....gosh

DavidLee what was your NLN score and total points?
