I am currently applying to various ABSN programs around the US. I just graduated in June with my biology degree from Oregon State University. I graduated with a 3.37 GPA, am currently signed up for a CNA class that starts in a few weeks and am volunteering at OHSU starting this month. I have also shadowed a nurse at a local hospital here. All of my pre-reqs are Bs and above (I don't know the exact GPA and it seems variable depending on the school). I was wondering if anyone had any insight on my chances of getting into a program? I'm quite nervous about it and feel that I am qualified but don't necessarily have the highest GPA (although my Bachelor's degree was very hard!). Also I was wondering if anyone had any school recommendations? I've been doing a lot of research trying to narrow down my possibilities for Spring or Summer of next year.
Thanks!
