I got a C+ in A&P 1. Kinda sucky I had a high Average all semester but I think I bombed the final and that's what did me in. Anyway it doesn't matter now I got accepted. I could be wrong but I'm getting the feeling that these ADN programs are loosening up a bit because more people are going straight in to a BSN program. I'm just gonna do my best and when I graduate go straight to a BSN program.

Yeah, I would've gone to a BSN program had they accepted me. I already have a BA and qualify for an accelerated program, but I only got in LIU, and they are super expensive! Getting an associates degree in nursing is a good idea for lots of reasons. This way I get to focus on nursing and do really well. Good luck to you!!!!
Thanks! Good Luck to you too! I think it's a good idea to get the ADN save some money, focus and then go for the BSN. I was looking in to Molloy but it was supper expensive too. I was about to apply when I received Nassau's letter. Keep in touch let me know how everything goes after orientation. I'll let you know how mine went since mine is on 5/20 :)

I just found out that I got a C+ for A&P 1 and I was very upset because I keep hearing that the nursing program at Ncc only looks at the students who have a B or better in that class. My plan was to apply for nursing in fall 2013, so I can start in Spring 2013(if accepted). So I don't know if I should retake A&P 1 so I can get a better grade, or look at other nursing programs :/. I'm taking summer classes, and I''ll be done with all my pre reqs by this fall, except for my 2 humanities. I can take that in a summer session though. Any suggestions :/ I really wanted to go to the program at NCC.
I got a C+ in A&P 1 and I just got in for Fall '13. They loom at your Teas scores and your GPA on the following classes Psychology, Statistics, Eng 101, and A&P 1. They don't look at your overall GPA for all your classes, just those 4 classes. So my GPA for those 4 classes was a 3.5 it was higher than my overall GPA. I did have all my other pre reqs tho, so not sure if that played a role. You just apply, you never know.
Thank you so much for the info, I still have hope in getting in then lol.

Really? Lol. I had a black shirt on and a ponytail. Are you in section A or B?
Yea that was you. Lol I'm in section A. Plainview hospital. How about u?
Lol, that's funny. I was eyeing your paper because I wanted section A. Didn't really want to drive to Plainview but the hours where better in section A. I'm in section B, I go to Winthrop for 4 weeks then Nassau County Medical center.
I'm in section B as well! Psyched and nervous! Good luck!
I'm super nervous!! All i hear about is how rigorous the classes are!! Are you ordering your uniforms before orientation on 8/29? I'm a little confused because they say we need to order them by 8/16 but it also states that a uniform rep will be there on orientation day. Not sure what I should do.
