Hi! I'm getting ready to apply to University of Buffalo's ABS program. I'm wondering if there is anyone else on here that's applying, we could provide some support to each other. Or if there is anyone in the program now (May 2017) that can give some insight to how many students got accepted and what the general acceptance gpa looked like. Thanks!!
rvesse815 14 Posts Jul 4, 2017 I am too! I'm currently taking some of the prerequisites, but should have them all finished by December.
FutureCNMkay 25 Posts Jul 4, 2017 I'm taking the prerequisites now too. Are you taking the prerequisites at ECC?
rvesse815 14 Posts Jul 10, 2017 No, at Cayuga CC (online). I'm starting Pharmacology in 2 days (wish me luck!) Which ones are you taking now?
FutureCNMkay 25 Posts Jul 10, 2017 Ahh! I'm taking that in the spring, so good luck! Right now I'm in anatomy 2, in the fall I'll be taking microbiology and patho.
rvesse815 14 Posts Jul 10, 2017 Thanks! I'll need it 0_0 I bought these flashcards that have helped me get a head start "Mosby's Pharmacology Memory NoteCards: Visual, Mnemonic, and Memory Aids for Nurses, 4e"--I'm a visual learner, so definitely recommend them if you are too.
FutureCNMkay 25 Posts Aug 29, 2017 Rvesse815, how are you doing with the applications essay questions? I'm struggling with how long my responses should be.
rvesse815 14 Posts Sep 11, 2017 I'm still working on the first draft. I'm thinking of limiting my responses to 350-400 words since there's a 2000 character limit.
rvesse815 14 Posts Nov 1, 2017 Yeah! I applied to Drexel too. If I don't get into either of their programs, then I'll wait another year to polish my applications. Where else have you applied? Also, I received an acceptance to SUNY Buffalo (the school), but not the program yet. Has that happened to you?
