Thanks! I decided not to apply based on what I've read here (experiences seem to be mixed skewing towards negative) and the less than welcoming response of the admissions office. If I don't get in...

I just called NYU to ask about things listed as outstanding in Albert--it turned out my application was complete and none of the items listed were outstanding. If you're worried, give admissions a...

Does anyone know what York's NCLEX pass rate is? I've done a little online sleuthing and can't seem to find anything... I took all my prerequisites at Hunter, couldn't get into their program, gave up...

Just wanted to revamp this thread--thinking about applying, can anyone chime in w/ their experience? Do I need to be accepted to York before I can enter the program (as is the case at Hunter)?

Got my scores back--87% math, 98% reading--woo hoo! I could have done better on the math part (I ran out of time and started panicking--forgot how miserable life is without a calculator!) but...
Okay, so stupid question for you folks here: I am literally out of classes to take at Hunter. I've got all my prerequisites done, all my generals done, I literally have nothing BUT the nursing parts...
Yes and no....I had some old GRE flashcards that I went through a few times. Not sure how much they helped. Also took the advice of an old college professor and read the New York Times editorial...
Do you know which two they look at? It's reading and math, right? Am I killing myself over my science scores for nothing Retaking math today, crossing my fingers I can pull a much better score this...
