Hi, I just finished the program at KBCC so I know firsthand the fears and anxiety of the NLN and then the actual clinical component of the nursing program. KBCC picks there students by test scores and the amount of space they have. If students need to repeat the Fundamentals class then there is less room for new students. After they get the best students (both NLN and gpa- and yes the english portion of the NLN is very IMPORTANT, even more important than math and science) then they move on to the students with a lower gpa and lower NLN scores. But I will say dont worry as much if they haven't gotten back to you in a timely manner they never do and they never will. Check Blackboard or CunyFirst constantly if you need info and lastly RELAX. Enjoy the time you have now. Spend time with the kids or your spouse or even by yourself. Go on a short vacation or if not a vacation take a day or an afternoon off work before the program begins because the nursing program will be your life for the next 2 years. Feel free to ask anymore question if needed and Good luck to all of you.
