It's only January and here I am getting anxious and scared about being accepted into the Nursing Program this Fall 2012. I have worked so hard and my school only accepts 140 seats and over 400 apply. Its so competitive. I've heard so many students talk about how devastated they were when they didn't get in. I feel silly because the deadline isnt until May and we wont find out if we are accepted until the middle of June. My school has this really intricate point system where basically everything you do gets you points and the top 140 point getters get into the program. Right now I only have 58 points and by the end of this semester the highest ammount of points I could get is 80. The most points anyone could get is 99. But thats with a 4.0 GPA in the prereqs, community service, prior military, having a CNA license, and taking all the extra classes that aren't required. I am so nervous, am I going to feel this way for another 6 months? Ahhh! Anyone else feeling this way so soon?
