How to get in to RN program

Hi everybody
i've searching around for nursing college and finally dropped into this forum and it kinda interesting me too, since lot of people in here are already nurses !
I'm just finished the prerequisites, and trying to get in to the Register Nurse program, however i have two repeat of classes (prerequisite) because i got a bad grade in those two classes, Micro and Physio . My G.P.A is not good either, i tried to apply for the program but some school don't accept the repeat of classes, Private school are so expensive, i wish i tried harder for the prerequisites so i will not stuck in this hard situation !!!!! I live in California, and i want to go to school close to where i live, If anybody in here know any public school for Register Nurse (ADN) that is easy to get in, would you please let me know ? Thank you so much for your help ! and nice to know you all !
Best wishes !

Re: How to get in to RN program

RN schools are very competitive and they look for the highest GPA and some schools use point systems. i am not from calif , but i would encourge you to check into local schools and see what they require. my school did not have a waiting list but went by GPA only and i had 3.9 when i was admitted into the program and when i graduated 5 years later it was down to 3.65 the nursing programs want the students who they are sure will pass boards , so they are picky. please keep us posted and good luck in the future..
