Am I kidding myself?

[PreRN Katie]

I'm feeling discouraged and overwhelmed and I need some moral support and/or someone to tell me I'm wasting my time. I have great grades in my current program of study (approx. 3.7, criminal justice, will be graduating w/ my b.s. in May 08) and decent grades for nursing prereqs. Decent, but not fantasticamazingsuperwonderfulEinsteingenius as is apparently needed to get into nursing school:devil:. The breakdown is as follows:

English 1101 - A

English 1102 - A

Psych 1101 - B

Human Growth & Dev Psych - B

Math 1101 - C

Statistics - C

Political Science - B

History - B

Humanities elective - A

Communication - B

Health/Physical Fitness - A

Sociology - B

Assuming I manage to pull off A's in A&P 1 & 2 and Microbio, am I going to be a competitive applicant for a nursing program (I'm in Georgia, btw)? I'll still only have a prereq GPA of approx. 3.33 or something like that. I don't think it will be enough...I think maybe I'm kidding myself... Any thoughts? Honesty is much appreciated.

You are right, all you can do is your best and you won't know for sure unless you try so just keep going forward! You always have the option to retake certain classes if you need to as well, but i'd just focus on those science prereqs and do your best in those, you'll be fine, just don't talk yourself out of something you really want! Good Luck!
