Members are discussing their experiences and tips for getting into a nursing program. They emphasize the importance of good communication skills, patient advocacy, and sociability during interviews, rather than just focusing on grades and test scores. They also share information about the program schedule, group chats, and their individual academic backgrounds.

Did you take NEX yet? How was it
Hi! I just took the NEX yesterday and got a composite score of 273 and I'm at 92 percentile. My prerequisite grades are, ENGLISH1 - A, MATH - A, A&P1 - A, PSYC220 - A. I'm substituting PSYC 2 for PSYC 1 because they don't allow you to repeat a class.
coreq grades A&P2 - B+ , PSYC2 A, Microbiology I'm currently taking, and planning to take ENG2 in the Summer. I sent in my application to the program this morning.
Did you guys do your application?
Hi all, sharing my stats here:
GPA for these 13 credits: 3.469. I'm currently taking A&P 2 and enrolled in Microbiology for the Summer. I got a 295 NEX score at 99 percentile. My GPA is low so really worried about my application.
Did anyone receive interview notices? I was reading the past threads and seems like they send them out pretty quickly after the application closes.

Thank you. You actually did better than me on both math and science. It's the percentile rank that determines your composite score, so getting one extra question right in verbal, in your case, can increase your composite score by 5 points.
