  1. What's next?

    Jl0202 replied to Trades11234's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Have you looked at CSUS? They do not look at your overall GPA, only the GPA for pre-requisite and co-requisite courses. You only mentioned having A's in 7 courses but if you earned A's in the other...

  2. Pre-nursing student advice

    Jl0202 replied to jojo12's topic in General Students

    Is that the closest nursing school to you? SoCal has several CSU's and private nursing schools. Have you looked into each one? There are still some hospitals that will hire you with an ADN, but you...

  3. Should I purposely fail my class?

    Jl0202 replied to Rilesss's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had this exact issue. When I first started college about 10 years ago I ended up withdrawing from two algebra classes before finally withdrawing from college altogether. When I finally decided to...

  4. Sacramento State Spring 2016 Application

    Jl0202 replied to coolmommy99's topic in California Nursing

    I was also shocked at the jump in the point cutoff. However, I went to the information session last month and at that point the cutoff was down to 75 points. I've heard that it has dropped since then,...

  5. Sacramento State Spring 2016 Application

    Jl0202 replied to coolmommy99's topic in California Nursing

    Hi! I am also applying for Spring, 2016. I'm a little nervous about my points because the original fall cutoff was 79 points. I will be applying with 80 points, so I hope that is

  6. Will Samuel Merritt accept a 76% in TEAS?

    Jl0202 replied to kellijoseph1's topic in General Students

    I don't know if the PP is familiar with California schools, but this statement is incorrect. The TEAS score has everything to do with the your chances at admission as most schools apply admission...

  7. CC Transfer in California

    Jl0202 replied to asiabuen's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Without knowing exactly what your GPA is, and in particular your nursing prereq GPA, it is very hard to give you any helpful advice. California universities are all very hard to get in to. If I were...

  8. My Fibro

    Jl0202 replied to Guest219794's topic in General Nursing

    For most of my life I have suffered from various illnesses, chronic pain, anxiety, etc. I went through every test that doctors could order for me (or so I thought). Doctors and nurses finally...

  9. Need some advice

    Jl0202 replied to Mickle372's topic in General Students

    It completely depends on where you are applying. I am in California and I can tell you that those B's could definitely prevent you from being accepted at the CSU's. How are your science and other...

  10. Prenursng student!! finished prereqs, need help on what to do next.

    Jl0202 replied to thelifepursuit6's topic in General Students

    Hi Jorge. I can tell you that many of the CSU's that you plan on applying to do not have interviews. They are very competitive and require at least a 4.0 or a GPA very close to that. You mentioned...

  11. Unsupportive spouse?

    Jl0202 replied to spierre's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I stand corrected. She did say he "forced" her to get a job. However, it he truly "forced" her then it seems he wouldn't have "allowed" her to quit. I stand by what I previously said. This young...

  12. Unsupportive spouse?

    Jl0202 replied to spierre's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Actually, I have been in a physically abusive relationship. I am currently in a healthy marriage and I can tell you that those first few years with three young children, financial strain, and...

  13. Unsupportive spouse?

    Jl0202 replied to spierre's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    The OP never said anything about having an abusive spouse. She said he was not supportive of nursing school. Let's keep in mind that they have had three children in a matter of four years. There is a...

  14. Unsupportive spouse?

    Jl0202 replied to spierre's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    There is so much more to consider than this "wonderful career". She has three very young children who have no choice in the matter. When you get married you take vows, for better or worse. Sometimes...

  15. Unsupportive spouse?

    Jl0202 replied to spierre's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    To be honest, your posts come across as very bitter. It sounds like you have underlying issues that you and your husband need to work out. My personal view on marriage is that it's a partnership that...

  16. Sonoma State Fall 2015 Applicants

    Jl0202 posted a topic in General Students

    Hello! I am starting a thread for Sonoma State Fall 2015 applicants. I've started putting my information in to my Nursing CAS account and I will finish my application at the end of the month, after I...

  17. Sonoma State Fall 2015 Applicants

    Jl0202 replied to Jl0202's topic in General Students

    Well, I got the rejection email. Looks like I'll have a good chance at another one of the CSU's for their spring start. Looking at the bright side-I'll have about 5 months of down time before starting...

  18. Sonoma State Fall 2015

    Jl0202 replied to Nursebot's topic in General Students

    I did too. When I saw how NursingCAS did the GPA calculations I somewhat expected that as my remedial courses from WAY back dropped my overall GPA down substantially. However, other CSU's have...

  19. Confused and Need Honest Advice

    Jl0202 replied to MeghanCheyenne's topic in General Students

    That schedule is manageable if you are willing to put in the massive amount of studying that is required with the science courses. However you should also look into the requirements for your ADN...

  20. Sonoma State Fall 2015 Applicants

    Jl0202 replied to Jl0202's topic in General Students

    I know how you feel. I've got three young children and a husband that have to put up with me and my crazy schedule until I finally graduate. I'm trying to keep up hope, but the anxiety is horrible! I...

    Jl0202 replied to Jl0202's topic in General Students

    Hi ljlevenson! Good luck to you as well...Regardless of the results, I just want this wait to be

  22. Sonoma State Fall 2015 Applicants

    Jl0202 replied to Jl0202's topic in General Students

    I'm sorry you had to deal with that. I absolutely hated the NursingCAS process. It took them over a month to verify my transcripts and calculate my GPA. That glitch must be why they extended the...

  23. Sonoma State Fall 2015

    Jl0202 replied to Nursebot's topic in General Students

    Hi meib92! Thank you so much for your help. I'm starting to feel like my chances are slim to none at this point. My transferrable GPA is 3.6 but Nursing CAS calculated all of my courses which dropped...

  24. Sonoma State Fall 2015

    Jl0202 replied to Nursebot's topic in General Students

    Did you submit your transcripts to Nursing CAS as well? I believe that only Nursing CAS gets the transcripts (unless you are referring to the official transcripts that have to be sent to SSU...

  25. Sonoma State Fall 2015 Applicants

    Jl0202 replied to Jl0202's topic in General Students

    The video that is posted on the Sonoma State Nursing website has all of the info. I had transcripts from two colleges so I had to print out that transcript verification form for each of them. I sent...
