Santa Monica College Fall 2019 ADN Program

Published

Hello everyone,

I saw that there has not been a thread created for the Fall 2019 ADN SMC cycle. I got the invitation email to take the NLN PAX test and my scheduled test date is March 29th. Does anyone have some study tips or advice on the NLN PAX? Also, are there any other nursing programs you have applied to? I am really eager to get into a nursing program this round and am hoping for some tips. My TEAS score was not that strong and I really do not want to go to West Coast University and pay 180K. Please share experiences and any updates. I wish everyone the best of luck, I know how stressful this whole process is.

May or may not be. Just a heads up.

does anybody mind telling me how many points you are applying with? I want to know if i even have a chance at this school. I have all B’s in my sciences. Trying to get an A in micro but not even sure if that will make a difference and can end up a B as well. I have no cna experience but starting cna program in the summer. I do however have a second language and a life experience as well as all my generals and transfer units done. However i dont know if that is enough to he consider .

SouthbayRn I have read on previous threads that most alternates make it into the program so you might have a good chance.

We shall see! I'm still waiting to hear back from harbor college. Ugh, I am really wishing I had volunteer experience and regretting that I didn't give myself enough time to answer alk of the verbal questions. I start work as a phlebotomist next month so if I don't make it in this time around, hopefully the extra work experience will help.
