I am planning to apply that semester and am wondering if anyone else planning too? For my stats I have a bachelor's degree in biology with a 3.0 GPA (crappy I know, but this what happens when you become a Biology major, especially at a very prestigious and tough school like Stony Brook), but my pre-reqs from this school is def a 3.5+ and I have tons direct patient care + shadowing totaling over 1500 hours +. I have done CNA training and have a certificate, volunteered as a medical assistant in a few medical offices and have been observing numerous physicians, PA's in the past year in various offices. My original goal was a physician assistant, but I decided to drop it and plan on it later and opted for nursing. I definitely have the potential, know it, but with all this competition, sometimes I doubt myself if I can even get into a program. Anyway, I am PRAYING for luck and would be happy to get into school regardless of the expense! (will worry on that later)
