Queensborough Community College Nursing Program, is there hope? English class

Published

The application requirements are very clear but I am worried

It's in here : http://www.qcc.cuny.edu/Nursing/criteria.html

In the pre-reqs I got:

Psychology101: A

Anatomy and physiology: A

Sociology: B+

English101: C-

Yes I know, I don't know what the hell happened in English :(

However I read something in the site that gave me a bit of hope and it said:

Only the first grade attained in the pre - clinical sequence will be calculated. However, students are permitted to increase their Application GPA by substituting a grade achieved in a higher level course. This substitution is allowed for one Pre Clinical Course as follows:

  • Bio-302 for Bio-301
  • Eng-102 for Eng-101
  • PSYC-220 for PSYC-101

Does this mean if I get an A in English 102, they will disregard the grade I have for English 101? Is it to good to be true??

I have an A in English 102

What are the chances of me getting accepted?

If you got accepted into the nursing program at qcc, what was your GPA?

Hi what was your score in the PAX test. I scored 96% which is 139 but someone at qcc told me that it has to be at least 100% to apply. I feel so sad because I have to wait 6 months to take the test again. I have a 4.0 GPA, currently taking A&P but this score on the PAX test upsets me. I'm not good remembering formulas and in physics I guess I screwed it :(.

139 on the PAX?? That's a great score!!! AND you have a 4.0 GPA?? You should definitely apply for the program and see if you get in with that score so you won't waste money taking the PAX a second time. I got into the program with a 4.0 and a 110 on the PAX.

Ghislene a 139 on pax is a good score, average score for admitted QCC students was 110 last year so don't sweat it. I got in with a 3.54 and a 140 on pax
