Nursebyfaith, I just took the Gre today. Wow, that was hard! How did you do on the Gre? I wish that they did not take that exam into consideration. My gpa is very good, but it is because I work very hard for my grades. One of the faculty there told me that they are reconsidering having that exam as a requirement. A lot of schools do not require it any longer. Forgot to mention that I applied to Troy for their Spring 2015 admission.

I didn't take the GRE. I took the MAT instead. The deadline is Oct 1,for the spring 2015 term. Troy requires a 2.5 GPA for the NP program my gpa is OK but I did really good on the MAT so I hope that makes up for my GPA of 3.1.. And also I'm taking a grad level class too. Which Troy knows about and will accept. By the way did you try to have your GRE wavier since your gpa is really good? Where do you live? I pray that we're both accepted. Good luck.

Hey, Nursebyfaith! Do you know how the GRE compares to the MAT? I wish I could have a waiver for the GRE. My problem is I did below average on the math portion of the exam. The verbal portion I did fine. My gpa is 3.84 :) I am registered to take two classes as well...Nursing theory, and a research class. These begin in October and finish in December. The director of the program said that these should transfer in without any problems. I live in San Antonio, Texas. Where are you from? I hope we are both accepted. I am worried about my math scores. All I can do is pray now.

I am taking my classes with Liberty University Online. How about you? Where are you taking your classes? The classes at Liberty run for 8 week sub-terms. I love their format! I wish I could have a waiver for the GRE. No one at the school has mentioned it as an option for me. I really think that it is difficult for one test to determine how well a student will perform as a student nurse practitioner. I took the TEAS test before nursing school (still did not do great in math) but I graduated from nursing school with honors. I don't understand the high requirements placed on these pre-entrance examinations.
