I am VERY interested in attented nursing school. I really just want to be accepted... I am closer to Cy-Fair but I am not picky... I would be excited with acceptance to any one of them. I was curious for those who have already been accepted. I know that u r ranked on a 12 point scale.. 4 for Eng 1301, Biol 2401, and Psyc 2301 (I believe). I have taken these courses already and have above the min 2.5 gpa.. but not straight A's. Do I receive the 4 points just for being above 2.5? Or will they take a closer look at the individual grades earned? And then I know there is another 1-4 points earned for other course required that are taken before applying.. with min 2.5 gpa also... I think I can handle that. Last there is another 4 points given from the HESI exam.. not exactly sure how that works.. ??? but has anyone taken it recently? Is there A&P on the exam? I am just curious what to study or review before taking it.....
Thanks so much to anyone who replies
