Default Re: Accepted to an ADN and BSN school. Which one to choose?
prereq GPA was a 4.0, overall GPA was a 3.932
I took TEAS 2 days after my final exam and wasn't prepared.
TEAS (National percentile rank)- Reading 87 , English 58 (I'm an international student), Math 99, Science 62.
Hope this helps....

I wish I had that overall GPA. I would do the BSN in your case. I don't have this option. I completed my BA with a 3.0. I'm still working on prereqs so maybe my only option is a ADN.

Let me make it clear.... my BA was completed in another country, with a GPA 2.3
(much lower than yours)
Then I moved to the US, completed all my prereqs (4.0) and 60 AS units (3.93) here.
I guess schools didn't count my previous GPA from outside of the US.
Anyway, you still have a chance, go for it! Consider CSULB rather than CSULA since it's a 2-year BSN program.
