Miami Dade College Spring 2016 nursing program admission

Updated:   Published

Good morning/night to all who are reading this,

I created this post in the hopes that all applicants applying for the nursing program at Miami dade submit their experience they have had so far and also submit any questions they might have. I'm currently applying for the accelerated option but would like to hear what others are doing in the part time and generic option. A little about me is that I have a BSN in health science (2014) and have taken all the prerequisites with the exception of A&P 2 (which I am retaking in summer b June 22).

Right now my biggest concern is the hesi a2 exam we have to take and making sure i ace it because my science gpa is not so hot right now. I have read prior posts and it seems like A&P is the most challenging section. Has anyone taken it as yet? Your advice would be greatly appreciated. Also I'm worried that after they evaluate my degree they might not take my science subjects and make me re do them ? ? . Has any one's transcript been evaluated yet?

Yeah I called again and they told me it was the 21st. Mdc is a complete mess smh

Guys, Today the hesi class average was 74.29

Hmmm it's steadily rising. This bites :(. Also we have the same overall points (84). What does this mean? 84 out of what? Thanks in advance :)

84.3 is the sum of 78 hesi 3.73 gpa and it is your competitive score against the other applicant for example someone has 80 on hesi and 3.4 gpa my competitive score is higher even though his hesi test test was better.

But how can we be sure it's gonna be about competitive score this time arround when the HESI is 60 percent and GPA is 40

The competetine score is the addition of 60% hesi and 40% gpa for example for me is 78.29x 0.6 =46.97 and 3.73x 10= 37.3 making my competitive score or ranking 84.3

Oh OK but how you know that's how they are going to pick us out

My adviser told me

Two of my friends took the exam today and got a 77 and an 84.

im hoping they dont keep extending the deadline.

October needs to get here already!

This wait is killing me but I have hope that we all get in, this is the time to apply. I have a lot of friend that will apply next semester. Rhis semester has been out of the ordinary with the deadline if they want to make us crazy they are in the right path. Sareme31 do you know thier gpa? Thanks for sharing

Yeah this wait is killing me too!!

I just want to know already. I know a lot of people who got discouraged this semester because of the HESI. So they didn't feel confident enough. I believe not many people applied or gave up on miami dade and are going to other schools.

I know for sure if I don't make it in, I will definitely begin January elsewhere. But my hopes ofcourse, is Dade.

I will ask them for their gpas and will let you know

I don't get it. How do they not have enough applicants? What are our chanced of getting in? (8 have an 84competitive score)
