I know everyone at one time or another has felt that they may not get into nursing school. I have been reading some of the posts in the NJ forum where some people didn't get into a BSN program b/c they had a 3.5 GPA. I have to say that I am a tad bit worried.
I graduated Rutgers in 2003 with a BA in Economics and I had a 2.0 GPA. From there I landed a really good job in the corporate world where I was promoted and always commended by upper mgmt. The problem is I never really liked this job and do not see myself being in a corporate setting for the lifetime of my career.
Knowing that admissions into nursing school is highly competitive, are there other people out there that got into nursing school with a "not-so-good" GPA?
I plan to quit my job in the fall to go back to a community college to do my pre-req's, but this is a very high risk since there is a possibility that I will not get into a BSN program.
If any of you can advise or share your experience it would be greatly appreciated.
