Hi, IMO I would take chemistry first. My reason is, to me, it's easier than mircobio. Do you have any bio background? On top of that if you haven't taken the pre-entrance exam then chemistry would benefit more. Typically they don't test on Microbio but will test you on basic chemistry. I hope this helped. James

For example, if you scored 99% on the nln and received points from previous classes, lets say 5 points, its like you got a 104% and thats how they rank you. The top 120 gets accepted. At least that's what I think. For fall 08 i think the highest % (saying you got 99% on the nln) with the points was around 110%. That's if you took every single class minus the nursing courses. For fall 09 the are giving 6 points for every A that you get. I think there are 12 classes you could take giving you a possibility of 72 points. If you get a 99% on the nln that comes to about 171%. Once again this is what I am thinking from what I see so far. I don't know if the admission process is going to be harder or easier that's how harper set if up. Did i answer the question? lol If i you still have a question please let me know. I will answer what I can.

I took 10 classes giving me almost 99% (with the points added from the classes) to get accepted for fall 08. Before the points added from the class, I got above 90% on the NLN. For the fall 08 semester they counted all the classes completed and gave you credit for it as long as it was a C or above by taking the number of hours divided by 3. I just checked the requirements for fall 09 and they set if up differently. They give you 6 points for A's and 4 points for B's. C's don't count anymore. If you do the math your possible points is 171 give or take if you get a 99 %tile on the nln. I don't know if it will get more competitive but that's a huge jump from being a possible 110 (give or take).

If you want to memorize the skull just use your right hand. Place your right hand on top of your head. Where your palm lands is the Parietal bone. The Thumb is the temporal. Fingers is the frontal bone and the wrist is the "Other" meaning it is the Occipital. Hope that helps somewhat. Great Video On Memorizing the Skeletal Bones

Wow is CLC typically harder to get into than harper? I know Harper adds points to candidates who took some type of pre-reqs which helps me out somewhat but I guess it goes for everyone applying for Harper.

Sorry I have no Idea where I sit for harper. I just know that I have several points coming to me because I took majority of the classes required. So your taking co-reqs? Isn't math the only course requiring that? You should just take the placement. I thought it was fairly easy. Do you know any nursing students at harper currently? and if so do you know what they received on their NLN scores? Thanks

So I have about one month left to hear from Harper and the wait is killing me. Anyone else here waiting to hear from Harper? I feel like the competition this year is more fierce and feel like I will barely get in. Anyone else feeling the same way?
