what is supplemental ranking out of? 10?

nme1990 · Apr 3, 2013

Oh no! That is terrible I didn't move but I was 100% ready to, there is nowhere else I want to go. Maybe I will wait and try again next year..

nme1990 · Apr 3, 2013

Rankings were like this: 1 = in top 25%, 2 = in top 50%, 3 = in top 75%, and 4 in bottom 25%

I'm surprised that I got a 4 on my extracurriculars and a 3.6 GPA must really be that awful. We all tried and I guess we will never know exactly what they were looking for. Too much must have been a bad thing? I knew I had to do some backups at this point. We will be nurses one day, don't let one school let you decide that. :)

Well it depends, I've done a little bit of volunteering here and there throughout the last 3 years of my degree, but never in a hospital actually. I also founded a club at my university as well as a small NPO. I had a good variety of things, but I think my GPA was too low to hold up the other end of things.

Does anyone understand how they rank supplementals ? I'm confused I got a 3 out of 4 I am assuming one is the highest score that you can get.

For those who got a 1 can you please give us some insight on your supplemental.

Thanks for the motivation ehlehnah
