Lehman college 2016 admittance

Published

I am applying to Lehman College's nursing program for this upcoming August and was wondering what my chances were. I just took my HESI exam and did pretty terribly on the Critical Thinking section (780). The other portions, I did fairly well. Math (98%), Reading (88%), and Anatomy (88%). My pre-req GPA is a 3.74. My overall GPA is close to a 3.5. I was wondering what my chances were with the 2 year program. One of the faculty told me that the critical thinking score was pretty low, but I should apply anyway. Do I have any shot at getting in? Thanks.

@smiley581,it sucke but maybe its for the brst workload wise. Does anyone know if we will have a clinical before our clinical orientation or doee the clinical orientation count as the first day of our clinicals? For instance my orientation is on aug 26. The first day of school is the 25th and I have Thursday clinicals.

How did you know your orientation day for clinicals? Mine is on Fridays and I don't have a class on Thursdays. I haven't received any email yet. Also, do you have any information on ? Thanks.

The school purchased the insurance for us last year so we didn't have to go on our way to get it. You can go to the department or wait till orientation to clarify. Almost 95% of questions are clarified at orientation including shoes (no sneakers allowed btw), uniforms, conflicting clinical orientation days,dosage calculation, courses,etc..

How hard (or easy) is the dosage exam?

Has anyone confirmed if we are to buy or if the school provides?

I thought it was pretty easy. Depends on your math skills really. I don't think there was anything to trick you.

Perfect that they scheduled your orientation when we have exams. No one's in the mood to talk then
