Nursing Students Pre-Nursing
Published Apr 1, 2010
I just read on AACN that there are nursing programs that do not have enough qualified applicants to fill their open seats. However, they did not mention which programs they were referring to. Does anyone know which schools they're talking about?

US News & World Report: http://grad-schools.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-nursing-schools/rankings. For some reason, they list it under grad schools. I guess if they offer graduate degree programs, then they list them that way. It's from 2007. I haven't been able to find a newer one.

Thanks Monster620.
I wish they had an updated one.

I didn't realize you'd already taken the other pre-reqs. I certainly wasn't trying to imply that you couldn't do it, I just think it would be harder, but that's only my opinion. Obviously some people come right out of high school into a nursing program and do just fine. Good luck, hope you find something that works out for you.
Thanks, JBMmommy. I know you were just expressing your opinion. No worries. I'm sure that if I had the time and money, taking a few math and chemistry classes would further enhance my ability to succeed in nursing school, but that's just not possible right now. I've come to find that those who pursue nursing school are a dedicated, persistent and driven group of people. I had no idea just how hard it would be to enter the field. Quite a shock, to say the least.
