Lwalker, AP scores count as a C for your nursing points. That's why I took statistics - my AP calculus score didn't give me enough points. And I also have AP English, which I can't retake ENC1101 (nor...

The wait is definitely crazy making. Try to distract yourself if you can. I'm going to go to the movies tomorrow. Maybe it will be there when I get home.

Thanks for the info, you guys. :) Regarding the academic advisors, if they give out misinformation or give people false hope, that's totally irresponsible. Yeah, you want to help people acheive their...

Also - there was another nursing applicant in the BLS class and she said she'd spoken to a counselor who told her that the high points last semester was a freak occurrence and they should go back...

I took the BLS course today and all I can say is owwwwww. My arms aren't used to that kind of locked motion nor are my knees used to kneeling on the hard floor. I definitely feel like a weakling. I...

I just went to campus to return a book and pick up my BLS materials. I stuck my head in the door of the nursing office. No big pile of envelopes in sight.

It's gorgeous outside and tomorrow night the time changes. I'm going to finish up my homework so I can have a lazy weekend to play with my kids and watch football with my husband. I hope we find out...

I finally got an answer from the nursing dept regarding the NAT. The actual highest score you can get is a 140.8, but she said no one has ever done that. So I feel better about my points now. I know,...

K-nurse: LOL I'm actually just a really good test taker and stuff from decades ago sticks to my brain. There is an actual academic aptitude section on the test, and yes, those are the three sections...

It depends on whether or not the NAT maxes out at 120. It was said in Falls' thread that it doesn't, but the nursing dept hasn't answered my email to confirm it. If it maxes out at 120, I have 208. If...

I hope that it is below 200, simply for all the people who will feel that it is impossible to get in and will quit trying. I took AP English and calculus in high school and the fact that those...

I think you can defer it until the next semester, but you have to go to financial aid to ask them to set it up for you. Or you can just take the money when it comes and save it until summer. That's...

LOL, I'd say go Gators, but I'd only jinx it. Either way, I got out of town and I'm trying to keep my mind on other things but its hard when everyone's asking me about

The formula for the NAT is your academic aptitude score, reading comp, and science added together and multiplied by .64. The points for your grades are what your grade is (A=4, B=3, etc) multiplied by...

Last year people were posting that they started getting emails notifying of their acceptance on November 12. I spent hours going through that thread. :) I'm hoping the time frame will be the same...
