Hey all pre-nursing students, nursing students, and official nurses! I am (hopefully) transferring in the fall to the Sac State nursing program, though Chico State is also an option. I was wondering, does anyone have any idea how likely I am to get in by looking at my stats? If not, no worries, I'm sure this question gets asked a lot. :)
My Nursing GPA will be at the end of this semester: 3.889 (I'm an all A student, except for my first semester where I got a B...I was 16 at the time, I have an excuse!)
My TEAS Test score will hopefully be a 95 (that's a guesstimate, based on the ATI practice tests/study guide)
Extra Points: Possible the 3 points for Healthcare work experience for Sac, definitely for Chico. Also, I'm from Yuba county, so that gets something extra with Chico.
I know! It's looking like a cut off of 78. Which means I will be a point shy. Guess we will have to wait and see.
I've been trying to find patterns in former semester forums, but we really don't know. Especially considering Spring 16's cutoff dropped a point, when the pattern was going up 2 or 3pts each semester.
Comparing older posts, the final cut off score can drop a lot from #80's score.
Fall '14: #80=76 //Final cut off=71 (dropped 5 pts)
Spring '16: #80=79//Final cut off=75 (dropped 4 pts)
I'm at 80 points. Apparently my 200+ hours working with patients in hospital billing and explanation isn't clinical experience, while gift shop clerk in a hospital is
It's better than a "no", but I'm really bummed.

I think you're still good with 77 pts :)
