BLS meaning the CPR course? I need to do it still was going to schedule something next week. Can you give me details of pricing, location, and if it’s Adult and Pediatric CPR?

I’m going to be in the day program but don’t even know how to see if I qualify for financial aid. How did you check/what are the steps to try to apply?

I was going to suggest the same lol

Got it just emailed ya back!! ?

Are u sure? I just checked in my emails and junk mail and I don’t have anything.... did I misspell my own email like a jerk? [email protected] can u try again? I just quadruple checked myself on spelling lol

Oh wow.. I have no clue how they choose them then.. but I hope those who have been helpful to one another on here and made a connection make it together because it’s so much easier to get through anything with support!! Sending u good vibes!!!!

No I didn’t get an email!! [email protected] and thank you for doing this!!

Oh boy I’m not going to lie you just made me more nervous — I can’t find anything that great to help me study all of that... the dosage calculations make me nervous too and once things are put into word problems I’m lost. Math overall is my weakest point. From what I know, they determine acceptance based on gpa, Kaplan scores, and how many of the prereqs you have finished. All of that combined so if u have more pre reqs done and or a higher gpa than other students you may still have an upper hand than those who got high test scores but don’t have as high of a gpa or as much done. Don’t quote me on any of this but from speaking to people through past blogs and that have been accepted that’s what I’ve gathered.

Stay positive! I know of people who got in with scores in their 60s! Can u give any info on math section? I’m struggling with that I’m absolutely terrible with word problems fractions literally anything that involves numbers!!!

@Nickibless my email is [email protected]

Ahhh!! Thank you so much!!!

I don’t know if this is the break down this is what I’ve seen in blogs from the past. I was asking @Jbeans1215 to verify whether this was accurate or not hoping it hasn’t changed to much from last year but I don’t know

Looking at past blogs a lot of them said to aim for high 70s and considered that to be a grade that got them in.. I know they look at other things too, but personally I think that’s a great score from speaking to other people in the past. i found this break down from a past blog too.. do u think this was pretty accurate breakdown of the exam for this year too? Cuz it’s kind of what I’m going by.. It was virtually ALL physiology. No chem, anatomy, bio, etc.  * Make sure you study a lot of the respiratory system (gas exchange, how air enters body, etc), cardiovascular system (blood flow through vessels, heart, etc), Nervous system (autonomic, parasympathetic, etc), and Endocrine system, feedback loops. Most (if not all) questions came from these four systems. Also, there were some questions about the digestive system. Math:  * Decimals, fractions, percentages, ratios, and a few dosage questions. * Make sure you have those first four mastered. Almost all of the questions were on those four types of problems. * There were problems where you had to add fractions, add decimals, convert decimals to fractions or percentages, etc.  * You can't bring your own calculator but there's a calculator on the PC screen you can use. Writing: * You have to read quite a bit for this section so keep mindful of the time. You get about 4-5 passages to read and each one has a few questions asking about different rules of English, etc.  * Make sure you know subject-verb rules, rules on using apostrophes, commas, colons/semi-colons, and clauses. Also, make sure you know when to use its vs it's, lets vs let's, etc.

Thanks! Did u take it already?

They provide a simple one on the computer for you. You can’t bring or use your own.

Were there a lot of word problems for the math?

@Jbeans1215Thanks for the info! Congrats!! 77 is not bad at all! I’ve known people that have gotten in with a lower score than that.. high 60’s even so don’t stress! For the math I’m mostly worried about the word problems for some reason they always stump me! Did u get an email from anyone on this thread sharing the study guides and tips and info before u took the test? I’m hoping someone will be able to forward that to me! I’ll update with how I end up doing after this weekend!

@NurseBae911 hi! Did u take your exam and how did u do!? Did @Nickibless email u any tips/study guides? And if so can u please forward them to me? My email is slaranjeiro1@gmail. Or if u took it already and there is anything u can tel me I’d appreciate it! I’m taking it on Saturday!!

Can someone PLEASE send me that study guide as well!? Email: [email protected] I’m taking my exam on Saturday 4/13. And want to make sure I’ve gone through everything I can possibly go through! Also any advice on how to prepare for the writing section and what that was like? Thanks guys!!
