I am applying for Fall 2017 as well!! I still have to take MCB, PHY, AND PSY this spring and Stats in the summer. I am currently sitting at a 3.941 GPA. I am just trying to figure out if I should apply when it opens (with those 3 classes in progress) or wait until the semester ends since applications are still open for I believe 10 days or so after...But good luck to you!! hope we can both get in!

I'm also applying for SPC in March for Fall entrance. This coming term I will have Micro, Psychology and Speech. Presently I have a 4.0 and have my fingers crossed to keep it that way this coming semester!

It is so hard because now I am sitting here with all this excitement and cant do anything with it! Unfortunately i am taking the reading class next semester because i cant get higher than an 88 but i feel so distracted when i go in that room to test. I may try to take it one more time if they are open..

I'm applying for fall too! Only two classes left for me: stats and speech. If I get A's in those classes I'll go into the program with all courses completed and a 4.0. Super excited about that! It's been a long journey for me because I had to start from the beginning. I had to take all of the developmental courses before I started the prerequisites. But it's been worth it! Good luck to all ♡♡

Have you tried traveling to a different campus? I just did my reading placement test at the Tarpon campus. It was super quiet and no distractions.

I need to! I mean an 88 is college level but a 95 is required or you need to take the course which i am going to do either way now.. maybe it will help me get in the right mind set for reading my books too my mind tends to float away i get distracted VERY easily..

I understand! I had to read the passages over and over again. I don't read a lot at home, so it took me awhile to finish lol. But I was lucky to get by with a 99. I think you should try one more time! You got this!

They are making me take the reading test even though the PERT placement test I scored a 147. I go on Thursday some time during the day to take it. Let's see how I do on that test.

The pert reading test is different than the reading accuplacer for nursing. The passages are much shorter and only 20 questions. Good luck to you
