Also is true that west campus lpn is only an evening and nights program! Something like 3-10 or something like that.

Does it say you have until July 10th to accept the seat? Being in New York is killing me! But my GPA is 4.0 and teas 76.7 so I think I'm in. Well I'm praying I'm in but I won't find out for sure until Saturday!

Yes it does. I hope you get in too.

YES!! - only your pre req GPA :)

Hmm So how do I calculate that? I have 5 As and 4 Bs. Do they calculate that as one semester?

(GPA of Pre-reqs only / 4) x 45%

TEAS score x 50%

If in County add 5%

= Total score...

Hope that helps

Just as a general post of information for all the readers and applicants:

I just spoke with the woman in charge of sending out the letters. (She called for some information from me). She is STILL in the process of mailing letters so if you are anxious to know and haven't received one, please be patient. The more people call, the less time they have to mail, since they are answering calls and questions instead of mailing your letters I know the wait is agonizing but all good things come in time.

Congrats to everyone that has made it into their respective programs! Great work and be ready for the ride of your life.

To everyone that did NOT make it in to their applied programs, hang in there! Set small attainable goals to work towards the big one and try again. You can be knocked down and just lay there hurt, or you can stand up and try again! I think everyone here is a good pool of hard workers that can achieve what they want. I am confident you will attain your goals. Keep working hard!

thank you but I am confused on how to calculate my pre req GPA only lol I have taken so many classes so I'm not sure how to calculate only specific classes together.

thank you but I am confused on how to calculate my pre req GPA only lol I have taken so many classes so I'm not sure how to calculate only specific classes together.

:) Sorry, I didn't fully understand that part :) Are all 9 of those classes your Pre-reqs? There are only 5 on the RN so I am just making sure. Either way, here's how you do it:

A's = 4

B's = 3

Find average and that is your GPA.

So, in the scenario you said:

5 A's = 20 pts

4 B's = 12 pts

32 (pts)/9 (grades) = 3.56 GPA

To calculate your program ranking/score:

3.56/4 = .89

So score is:

.89*.45 = 40 pts PLUS

TEAS x .50 = ?? PLUS (sorry not sure what your TEAS was)

IF in county = .05

TOTAL = YOUR score...

Perfect!!! Thank you so much!!! Yes I have 9 because it is the transition program. I am assuming that lab counts.

I wanted to ask about shoes, I found these on Zappos.com the Dansko Enya, they were on sale for 71.99 and they look really comfortable. Does anyone have any input on these? Just wondering.
