Malcolm X Nursing Spring 2021

Published

Hey there! Is anyone here applying for Malcolm X ADN (nursing) program for Spring 2021? I am a bit nervous. My GPA is 3.0 and I am taking the TEAS soon and hopefully scoring >90 overall. How likely is it to get admitted? Has anyone been admitted with lower stats before? Thanks!

if I don't get in ima just apply again for the application that opens in January. 

Im going to contact them Thursday if nothing happens by then, because I worked soooo hard to get all the medical forms filled out and paid out of pocket for them. 

I totally understand. It's a lot.

I was thinking about doing Medical Assistant. What's your thoughts on that? I'm sure that's a easy one to get in and they make l almost as much as LPN

I heard its pretty good job, if I don't get in Im just going to take the rest of the classes for resurrection because I only have a handful of classes I need to apply for their program.

That's interesting. What extra classes do you need for Resurrection?

Like somewhere between a CNA and an LPN? But what do they do that's different from a CNA?

Thanks to all of you here to have someone to communicate to instead of biting my nails by myself.

Cool. Smart thinking to just keep going. I truly hope we all get in and it's only Monday, one business day past the deadline, so at this point we shouldn't read anything into this delay in records...

It's hard not to be thinking about this all the time!

yeah if I get in ressurection in fall id have my BSN in two years instead of just my AAS, so I feel everything happens for a reason if I don't get in!

That's a good way to look at it.

I checked my portal like 30x today. My medical doc still shows incomplete.

Mine looks exactly the same, it’s cause TB and drug test are part of the medical docs. I think it’s just the waiting game now ??

Exactly what mine shows. I’m even having dreams about this. I had a dream that 80% of the slots were full already ? Obvs not the case haha.

Do any of you still need any of your coreqs?

I still need Microbiology, I can’t decide if (if I get into the nursing program this semester) I should take it during the first semester, during the Summer, or during the second semester.

I took Biology 226 over the Summer and let me tell you... that condensed class seemed to drag on and on since we met 3x/week on zoom. Synchronously for 4 hours at that ? I can’t decide if taking micro would be worse during the Summer or with a nursing class...
