From what I have read in other threads, people have gotten in with scores in the 70 range.

Hi! I was just recently accepted for Fall 2016! I was just wondering what your school schedule is like during the week? Where did you do your clinicals for each semester?

Hi! I just recently applied for Fall 2016 and was accepted! Personally, I found the science section to be the most difficult. Science was my lowest score. Definitely know all the systems in the body. I think it is important to know their functions. A lot of the questions are based on things you've learned in A&P. I hope that was helpful! :)

Hi, It's been quite awhile since this post and I was wondering if you have found the answer to your questions. My goal is to attend SUNY Upstate after I get my associates. On the site, it says that you must be ELIGIBLE for your license; however, do you need to have it by the time you start classes?

And what does CCNE mean?

also, one associates program that I am looking at is ACEN accredited. What does that mean?

So say I do my LPN at this non accredited school, but transfer to an associates program that is nationally accredited. I should be okay when applying to RN-BSN programs and finding employment?

Hi, So I'm looking into attending a school that is state accredited, but not nlnac accredited. They offer LPN, RN, and BSN programs; however, I only plan on finishing my RN and then transfer to a state school. Will the school's non nlnac accreditation hurt me when applying to RN-BSN programs? Would this prevent me from getting accepted? I know it might be bad if I were looking for employment right after my RN which is why I would like to finish my BSN at an nlnac accredited school right after graduating with my associates. I'm sorry if this sounds all confusing, but I hope you can understand what I'm trying to say. I just need HEEEEEELP.

I was only asking because when I was looking at RN-BSN programs, one school requires you to be employed as an RN. Other schools that I have looked at do not specify. Is this a requirement of all RN-BSN programs? Working and being a student at the same time is just not a good idea for me. I would do prereqs at CC and transfer to a 4 yr; however, due to commuting/transportation, it would be more convenient to attend the ADN program that I applied to. CC is my back up plan.

Hey guys! So I was a former biology/pt student who decided to switch to nursing. I'm hoping to start school Fall 2015. I'm looking at an associate's degree program and finish in two years and then go straight into getting my BSN after. Do I have to take the nclex after I receive my ADN? I'm not planning on working and going to school at the same time. I've had issues with school and I know doing both will not go well with me. Do I have to do an RN-BSN program or can I transfer into a traditional BSN program? Do RN-BSN programs require you to have taken the nclex, be employed, have your license, etc? Someone please explain to me what I can do!
