2011 Macomb Community College HESI and GPA scores for nursing program

coppe1rl · Dec 28, 2010

Well, school doesn't come easy to me at all, I just work really, really hard. I make literally hundreds of notecards each semester and re read chapters 2 sometimes 3 times before exams and high light and re-read over and over until I feel comfortable with it. It's time consuming and definitely puts a dent in my social life, I was away at college and actually moved home because the "college" life was effecting my grades. Work hard and you can do it too!

So I talked to a counsler today, and he said that I should have no problem getting into to program. Of course he couldnt say that I would get in for sure, but it made me feel better.

4.0 and 91%

Well those are both great scores so I would hope you don't have a problem getting in! My friend had a 4.0 and an 89 and she got in and started in October, so you should definitely be fine! Good luck:)!

I took the Hesi in November and scored a 89%. I have an GPA of 3.77 (thanks to Micro) and with luck I will make it into the program. Based on this past years applicants I shouldn't have a problem, but you never know!!! So far the averages on the Hesi are low and the number of people taking it is low, all of this will be the deciding factor! Good luck to all!! :)

I took the HESI January 4th. Our class average was an 82. I scored a 94 and have a gpa of 3.7. My fingers are sooo crossed. Waiting until April to find out is going to be hell. (Hi, Will!!)

The wait is going to be awful, but hopefully it pays off! The class averages do seem really low this year, which I hope will also be a good sign. My main concern is getting in, my second concern is when I'll start. I really hope I don't end up getting in but having to wait unti next winter to start! Does anyone know exatly how many people they're accepting this year? I think it's 160 and 40 people start on each of the 4 start dates. But I could be wrong??

The wait is going to be very hard. The application packet says that ranking takes approximately 3 months from the February 15th application deadline...ahh that will put us at mid-May before we know. Last year the letters were mailed at the end of April, I wonder the packets for last year said 3 months too?

Have all of you taken the new required class HHSC? If so, what exactly is it all about?

I'm applying with a 4.0 and a 94% on the HESI. My class average was 82. I was told that last year's bottom 5 that got in had an average of 3.58 GPA and 88 on the HESI; but we have to keep in mind that every year is different.

I'm in that HHSC Intro to Nursing class right now, and advise anyone that hasn't taken it yet to look at the questions in the back of the assigned chapters before taking the quizes.
