BSN Acceptance Question- Emory

[mmblue44]

Hey guys, so I am applying for Fall 2015 BSN at Emory, KSU, Mercer, GSU, Piedmont, and probably a few others. I am finished up all of my pre-req's next semester. I took Statistics about 6 years ago when I was a freshman and not a very good student. Luckily, I turned that around and now have a good GPA, but not before I made a C- in Statistics. I know that a C- doesn't fulfill the requirement for Statistics at any school, and I am planning on retaking it in the Spring, however, I realize I probably should have retaken it this semester so that the schools would have my new grade in the course at the time of my application. I was wondering if anyone else has been in a similar situation and what the outcome was?

Here are my other grades:

A&P1: A

A&P2: A

Chem 1151: A

Org. Chem: A

Bio 101: A

Math1101: A

Intro to Psych: A

Human Growth and Development: A

Abnormal Psych: A

Intro to Sociology: B

I also expect to have great recommendations from science professors. I am really anxious that they will simply throw out my application because of my C- even though I have plans to retake it to make up for that grade... Any thoughts or advice is welcome!
