    JeannieG replied to divineintervention's topic in New York Nursing

    To all of you who are waiting or waitlisted, I've been following the thread even though it no longer applies to me. I feel so bad for you all. I was in the same position last semester waiting to...

    Earb, did you also have to take English Lit? They're not accepting my CLEP credit for that

  3. anyone apply for sccc fall 2011 nursing program?

    JeannieG replied to divineintervention's topic in New York Nursing

    FYI, guys, I was waitlisted for Spring 2011 with a 4.0, and accepted for Fall 2011. I can't speak to people lying about their GPA, but I think there is more to their decision making than just grades....

    Admission to the program is based on your scores on the PAX. Everyone has to take it. The Farmingdale website has a lot of information about what they require, and they give information seminars...

    You need to apply to the program first by the end of December. Then they tell you if you should take the PAX

    JeannieG replied to divineintervention's topic in New York Nursing

    If I didn't already have my answer from Farmingdale, I would just pay the $100. It's too risky to not pay it. "Cowboy up!" I love

    JeannieG replied to divineintervention's topic in New York Nursing

    Buckaroo, the envelope I got from SCCC was a regular letter-sized envelope, but very full. As far as the website goes, there is nothing that says you're accepted. I got my letter, and if I look at...

  8. anyone apply for sccc fall 2011 nursing program?

    JeannieG replied to divineintervention's topic in New York Nursing

    Hi, guys. I got my letter of acceptance for the LPN to RN program at SCCC. I've already decided to go to Farmingdale though. It just makes better sense because I can be graduated by May 2012 as...

    JeannieG replied to mich9385's topic in New York Nursing

    Thanks, Buckaroo! No, actually, it's a summer start for me because I'm going in as an LPN, and I have advanced standing. I will go through the summer as a catch up, and then in the fall I believe I...

    VF11, congrats on doing well on the PAX. My composite was 150. They are much more interested in the percentiles though. That in combination with your GPA is how they decide on acceptance. The day...

  13. What study guide to use for the NLN PAX RN?

    JeannieG replied to KarenSing's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took the test 1/22 (this past Saturday), and I scored in the 99th percentile in Verbal and Science and the 92nd for DI, the 88th for AD and the 87th for All in Math. The NLN Review book was...

    They want you to have A & P II complete, but don't quote me. Go to one of their info sessions. They have them on Wednesdays in the morning. You can get the answers directly from them. Good...

    JeannieG replied to mich9385's topic in New York Nursing

    You have to apply first, and once you've applied, they will notify you as to whether or not you are a candidate to take the NLN based on your GPA and your pre-requisites. The deadline to apply has...

    JeannieG replied to mich9385's topic in New York Nursing

    Hi, all. I just wanted to say hello and update this thread a bit, since it's been quiet for a while. I just took the NLN Pax-RN yesterday, and I scored 99/87/99 percentiles and have a 4.0 gpa so...

    JeannieG replied to KarenSing's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    JeannieG replied to ducexcrew's topic in New York Nursing

    Congrats on getting into the program! I was told by admissions to not bother with letters of recommendation, that they didn't even look at them. As far as what I need to graduate, minus the nursing...

    JeannieG replied to LL1208's topic in New York Nursing

    Ducexcrew, It's probably in my best interest to stick with Suffolk. I don't have enough credits yet to apply to Stony Brook, and I really was not thrilled when I went to the information seminar at...

    JeannieG replied to LL1208's topic in New York Nursing

    Same for me, but it's enough to make me pull my hair out! I know that a certain number of seats are reserved for people who work in facilities who have their prerequisites. I'm not sure how long...

    JeannieG replied to LL1208's topic in New York Nursing

    So I just received my letter today. I've been put on a wait list for Ammerman's LPN to RN accelerated program for this spring. The letter says that I may be accepted if a seat becomes available, and...

    JeannieG replied to ducexcrew's topic in New York Nursing

    I applied to both Grant's evening program and Ammerman's day program for LPN to RN advanced placement. I haven't gotten any letter regarding waitlist, acceptance or denial from either program. It's...

    JeannieG replied to steffck's topic in General Nursing

    I have to add my personal experience to this list of great stories. In 1996, my Dad was in North Shore Hospital on Long Island awaiting transfer to Hospice in Glen Cove. He had lung cancer that...
