[anikoo96]

Hi everyone! I’m starting this thread so we can share our application criteria points with each other! I just turned in my application today. I have between 85 and 88 points. I have 3 B’s on my science prerequisites :((, 4.0 gpa for all the general Ed courses. I have fluency in Spanish, an associates degree, CNA, and volunteer experience. I scored an 88 on my TEAS! I hope they can look past my grades in my prerequisite courses and I get in!!! I hope we all get into this cohort! Good luck everyone

No i did at Palomar a year ago, but my physiology was expired... And I did not tell them anything about my situation

So yes, I had to take psio again. Talk about dedication. Lol

They are 2 years.... 6 total semesters (24 months) as you have no breaks or summers off. I was almost to my 6th semester.

So heartbreaking. Hopefully it works out for you in the end.

Anywho. I hate when s*** and life happens to people, and hope that person is okay. But hope someone just decided to go elsewhere. But I do not wish any bad on anyone

It will. I just don't want to have to take more detours. Already have some plan Bs.

Yeah. It was an extra 120 hours of clinical. It was equivalent to working full time for 4 weeks during semester. Great experience but holy cow. But there was so much more going on than that.

K please keep me posted on alternates who get in, and other news. And just bare with me till August. Lol

I bet. I'm a lil weary to take 1 BSN class during the program and we only have 10 unit semesters. Lol I looked at SDSU class schedule and they take 16-18 units each semester. So I'm hoping separating prerequisites, ASN and BSN really decreases the load.

It will for sure... I was planning a wedding my first semester with the load then going through counseling and divorce proceedings during my last semester with an externship. Not to mention I was quite emotional.

It will work out just fine for u. Lol
