Phillips Beth Israel Applicants

Published

has anyone applied to Phillips Beth Israel for 2010? Taken the NLN? I'm only really applying to PBSON bc I need to work full-time and this seems to be the only program within NYC/NJ that works (?).

Well, I called the NLN and found out that my test wasn't scored yet, don't know why. They also said that it can take anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks to get the results! I guess the waiting continues. :crying2:

oh nooooo!!! that's terrible! well more bad news about NLN, I just received an email today that my exam is actually rescheduled to 3/15 because that is the next available testing date. TOTALLY ridiculous and I am really mad about this. It's not my fault that it was cancelled because of weather. I can't remember but does Phillips Beth Israel consider a complete application to include the NLN scores? This is totally ridiculous. The whole point of me taking the exam early is to find out earlier about applying to the school.

Don't worry about the date of the test. Send in your application without the scores, I did. They know what day you're taking the test since you have to write it on the application. Besides, your test will be scored and sent by April 1st. As long as your application along with transcripts, letters of recommendation, and essay are in by April 1st you're good. I found out this morning from Beth Israel that the scores can take 2-3 weeks so I should be getting them next week. I really need to chill out. My husband is just about ready to kill me.:eek:

I actually spoke with admin there and they said the next admissions committee meeting to determine whether or not you get an interview is not until April anyways. So I definitely have PLENTY of time. I really would just rather get it over and done with like I said so they were able to accommodate me for next Sat. This is exactly why I want to go to this school so bad. Their administration is sooooo incredibly helpful and make the process so much easier. lol all this anxiety!!!

That's great news. So glad everything is working out for you! Like you said, all this anxiety for nothing. Good luck on your test!

I'm in the same boat as you guys the wait is KILLING me. I dont know how I am going to make it until April. I called the school this morning and they have all my stuff except a copy of my transcrips because I guess my school didnt send them yet so I put in another request. I faxed them a copy of my unofficial transcript just so they would have something. I'm so stressed....the anxiety is getting to me too....not knowing is killing me. I am so impatient it is rediculous, and I too stalk the mailman no joke. I get my mail late (Like 3:30) and as soon as I see the truck I get so happy...then when there is no mail the wait for the next day kills me lol

I have excellent grades but I did kinda crappy on the NLN test because I literally had less than 2 weeks to study for it and my science portion completely threw me off track because I was expecting alot of anatomy and it was mostly physics (why, I have no clue)...so I guess I have to wait and see. :uhoh3:

Oh Kuklara, I feel your pain! It is now Thursday and still nothing. Thank God for school distracting me because if I didn't have that I would be in a nut house somewhere! :lol2: I can't take it anymore. I hope and pray that I get my results tomorrow but I'm kinda thinking not. :confused: Even if my results come tomorrow I still have to wait to see if I get accepted. Will it ever end??? Let's just hope and pray that by the Fall we'll be joking about how stressed out we were over the waiting for some kind of news! Keep me posted!
