Suny Downstate accelerated Program 2015-2016

Published

Hey I know we still have about four months before we can begin applying to the accelerated program but i was wondering , what are you guys doing to prepare your application and Etc.

Thanks Sumiink,

I guess you also submitted at very early time.

I got similar TEAS V score that verbal 88 and math 96, and GPA around 3.7. However I did not do well on the science pre-courses. I got B for both of my AP classes which I had taken during my freshman year. And only an A for the chemstry. I am still taking the microbiology right now. Hope it will not affect a lot.

Gratefully I was accepted--I received the email last week.

My TEAS scores were as follows:

Reading: 97

Math:90

Science: 85

My cumulative GPA was 3.1 and my science GPA (all the prereqs) was a 4.0.

Once again, congrats/good luck to everyone--

any questions please feel free to ask--

We should make a facebook group or something--share resources, textbook exchanges, etc.

For the facebook group, you can add me, Ari Daniels. I saw there were a bunch of others from previous years and it looked like a good idea.

Specializes in Med-surg, home care.

For those who were accepted to downstate what type of health care experience do you have? I work full time and have a family so I was trying to do a few hours on Sundays for volunteering but a few hospitals so far want people to do weekday hours. I am also trying to do a cna course so I can be certified. Would that be sufficient if I can't volunteer? I want to apply for summer 2016 . Thanks

I worked in a residence for the developmentally disabled for 2 years, and as an aid in the psych unit of a hospital for 2 years. I don't know how much all that actually weighed in my acceptance, but I would imagine that any healthcare experience is a lot better than none.

I think they send them out on a constant basis, from back in November up until the spring.
