Just created this group for Palm Beach State College in Lake Worth, FL. I just wanted to see who all submitted a Nursing application for the fall of 2018. Which would be the June 1st deadline and start in August. I wanted to compare points with everyone else to kinda see where I'm standing and any information people have. I attended a couple information sessions this year and they discussed previous points for Fall and Spring. I have a 24.2 in total which is around average they said to aim for.
Anyone else??? Would like to see what others got on HESI and total points

I know this is an old thread, but did any of you get into PBSC? I'm applying and trying to see where I stand. I haven't taken the HESI yet but if I were to get the lowest possible 80% cumulative, I would have 25.2 points. Does that sound like enough points?

@alison86786 Yes I think that’s good enough points if that’s what you have. Last year’s median average points I believe they said was 24.4, don’t know what the lowest score accepted was.
i’ll be applying for Fall 2019 as well, and my score is at 23.98, so I pray I make the cut, cause I have no time in front of me to try and retake the Hesi
@NuRhorizon They told me 25 was a good number to aim for but that "you never know, it always changes" line. Lol. It has been going up slightly in recent years, but that's only because they changed the point system. Also, lots of people with bachelors and masters degrees are applying to the program. So now that the new point system has been in effect, it will probably start to level off she said. So, she was saying even if you have 23 or 24 points, still apply. Because the ranges are usually around the 24-27. And they fluctuate. They can go up or down, so it is always worth applying.
Are you applying to Belle Glade or Lake Worth ?
Yeah I still haven't taken the HESI yet. I was gonna take it this week but I figured since I won't be able to retake it, I should study another week. I do like how it's just walk-in at Lake Worth and you don't have to schedule a date, but it also has made me procrastinate because I know I don't have to schedule an appointment and I keep delaying it lol
Hey all!
Im applying for full time lake worth nursing in May. If anyone else is applying for this May we should chat! Email me at [email protected] and I can give you my cell!

Hey everyone. I’m interested in doing the bridge program at palm beach state college. I’ve heard it’s “ hard to get into “ I wanted to know is that true. Also, is it only the math hesi that has to be taken or so I have to also take the nln ace 1 exam as well ?

Yes that correct. You only have to take the math hesi and ace exam.
