I am an older student in the Nursing program at BMCC . My advice is to not take CUNY staff actions personally. I've attended private and public colleges. Administrators come in various types, but from my experience, they respond better to respectful, motivated students. They know students need their help usually. Unfortunately, many administrators and Professors will give back the same treatment they receive from the student body, and I've seen some terrible students at BMCC, to say the least.

I agree with the above post regarding not transferring the previous grade in, and instead plan to retake the course and get a higher grade. However, regarding needing all "A"s, that is a misconception which many students state regarding BMCC. I'm also a nursing student at BMCC, and I'm aware of quite a few of my classmates who did not get all "A"s in their pre-reqs. It is great if you do, but you are not automatically eliminated if you don't. The average GPA varies with each incoming class of students, and while the GPA's are high, there is a range, and there is always a slim chance that the competition one application year could be easier than the norm. Good luck and try to speak with the Nursing department enrollment guy, Mr. S.
