  1. Is 71% in Chemistry enough?

    This seems like an extremely generous grading
  2. I am concerned about the decline in the NCLEX pass rates for 2013 and 2014 too. However, I do know that changes were made to the exam in 2013 and many schools were not prepared for it. Hence, there...

  6. Long Island University Accelerated Summer 2015

    I completely agree on the time management, hard work, and positive thinking. I was accepted into the accelerated program of both schools, I think LIU accepts approximately 80-100 students into their...
  7. I would suggest calling the admissions department and asking what their specific TEAS requirements are by subject. I don't think it will hurt to take the TEAS again being that your math score can be...
  8. Long Island University Summer 2015

    School's don't accept C- grades for transfer, so I would suggest retaking microbiology and work hard on getting an A, this will help you a bit. If you can, maybe try retaking A&P 2. Good

    I got in with a so so Proficient TEAS score of 74.8, my undergrad GPA was 3.08, my pre-req's GPA was 4.0 (Which consists of A&P 1 and 2, Gen Chem 1 and 2, Lifespan human development Psychology,...
  10. Long Island University Accelerated Summer 2015

    I was also accepted to LIU but will be attending CNR's accelerated program instead. From what I know, it seems like LIU has a good program, but it is extremely time consuming and rigorous. The problem...
  11. I didn't apply to Dominican College but I did apply to 4 other second degree accelerated nursing programs and did a lot of research on other schools. Since no one from the school responded, maybe I...
  12. anyone going for the accelerated CNR

    My only concern with CNR was their drastic decline in nclex pass rates these past 2 years. Although several schools have declined pass rates due to the changes in the exam and grading process, CNR's...
  13. anyone going for the accelerated CNR

    Thanks candycane. I hear you about 8 credits in 6 weeks being a lot. I was also accepted to LIU's accelerated program that starts this summer. But I ultimately chose CNR because although LIU is 15...
  14. anyone going for the accelerated CNR

    Ka-trinaaa, the accelerated curriculum is the same as the individual track, the only difference is that we can take summer classes to finish faster than the individual track cohort. Both programs...

    Hi candycane & ka-trinaaa, Congrats!!! I was accepted as well and will be starting on June 29th. I attended the open house, they mentioned the mandatory orientation for the summer accelerated...
  16. I went to the info session and they mentioned that decisions are being made for the summer cohort these couple of weeks so you should be hearing from them soon as long as all your material was...
  17. I applied on 3/4 and they received all my transcripts, essay, and recommendation letters by 3/8 which made my application complete for review. I got my acceptance a week or so after
  18. Congrats NuseAlly817! I was also accepted to the second degree accelerated program at CNR so we'll be in the same cohort. I just submitted my deposit 2 days ago and signed up for the BLS for...
  19. Pace ABSN Fall 2015 vs LIU ABSN Summer 2015

  20. Pace ABSN Fall 2015 vs LIU ABSN Summer 2015

  22. CNR 2015 applicants? 2nd degree

    Thanks for the parking tips, I'm sure it is still easier to find parking at CNR than it is around LIU. From what I read, I believe summer classes are Mon-Thurs from 8am till around
  23. CNR 2015 applicants? 2nd degree

    Thanks for the insight JRJohnson. How far along are you in the program? I live in Nassau county, Long Island and will be commuting so the distance to both schools is equivalent, although the traffic...
