It doesn't hurt to apply when you some have pre-reqs in progress. Some of my peers got accepted into the Samuel Merritt ABSN program with 3 pre-reqs in progress, so it's definitely possible to get into the program while you have pre-reqs in progress....

My gpa (science, pre-req, previous degree, overall) was about 3.5-3.6 when I got accepted! When I first came on this forum, I was very discouraged by the high gpas, but don't fret. There are schools that look at your overall application and not just ...

I definitely understand how hard it is to get into anatomy/physiology classes. It's a never-ending waitlist! Samuel Merritt offers anatomy & physiology but it's sorta of pricy though ($500+/unit). It's a hybrid class meaning that you'll meet for ...
