I just applied to the ABSN a week ago. On the Kaplan, I got a 74 overall with a 65 in the science section. My prerequisite GPA is 3.1. I barely made the minimum.
When I spoke to the director a few days ago, I was told that 200 people had applied to NAU's program. I was also told that they are waiting for approval for the opening of another campus for ABSN in Phoenix which should come in early February.
I don't know the average Kaplan score, especially for the science portion. Some websites say it's around 68 overall and around 50 for the science which seems too low to me. If those numbers are true and they make the minimum science score 65 and overall 70 like they normally did in the past then out of 200 100 are out of the race right out of the bat.
With my scores in Science, I will be competing for 50 spots if they open the Phoenix program (30 for Flagstaff and 20 for Phoenix). If I include the alternates it might be 75 spots out of 100.
What's your prerequisite GPA and what score did you get on the Kaplan overall and for science? Also, if you have any new information about the ABSN this year post below.
I'm not sure, they are backed up so I'm sure it's fine. I just know priority deadline was Jan 10th and that you were suppose to have your Kaplan/Casper done Jan 15th to be considered for priority deadline
That is good they changed it! How'd your exam go? Do you want to exchange number? I'm curious what the nursing advisor has said to you, since they seem super unorganized this year
