RN generic full Time fall 2014- Miami dade college

Published

I'm applying for the Generic Full Time RN program for fall 2014 (August). I took my NLN Pax exam already and got an overall score of 143. Curious if this will be goof enough to get in? Can't find any stats since the previous test was the TEAS... Looking forward to hearing back from anyone else that has taken the test already. Thx.

Ok guys, now I need your support. I just got off of the phone with advisement and they told me that they are not going to ask for the Spring 2015 students to take an entrance exam at all. They are going to base their decision on cumulative gpa (40%) and science gpa (60%). I am freaking out. Now I am so nervous that both of my gpa's are too low. I was going to "try" and use the exam to compensate. I feel sick :(

OMG wow! I'm so sorry to hear that. Good luck.

Hey Grace whats the address for the miami rescue mission? and how much did you pay there? is it the same price?

It's the same price and the address is 955 NW 3rd street. From the medical campus you go towards 12th ave and make a left to go up the bridge towards 3rd Street. Once you get to 3rd Street make a left and drive straight down and it's the big peach building. It's free parking down level and once you get inside just ask the security guard where is the miami rescue mission. It literally took me like 10 mins. (5 minutes to fill some paper work and 5 minutes to do the blood work)

Oh really. I thought about that yesterday, but I figured we couldn't do that because the receptionist didn't offer it to me at all. Does it matter at all that I started my initial screening at MDC medical? Or can I just finish everything at 3rd street?

Oh I wouldn't know about that. You should probably ask. I took that option because of my hours at work. Medical campus closes at 4 pm. (When I get off) and the rescue mission center closes at 10 pm. So it was best for me.

The link for the flyer is on step four if you need the hours to the either one of the places cause they are different.

I went to do the physical today except the ppd.. any way it took me the whole day . I was going to go to the rescued center but the person at mdc told it was better to do it on campus because other places does not have the info on the computer and if you need a copy of the paper work you will not able to get it. And at mdc it takes longer but they actually put on the system

When MDC looks at your cumulative gpa, do they look at AS PGM GPA, AS MY INST CUM PRO, or All CUM GPA?

I guess I'll ask on Friday on that issue. But I doubt it cause why would mdc give those options if it would be a problem to get the paperwork.
