I'm a bit nervous about having a C+ in nutrition. It was only one point from a B I have As in A&P I, II, and Micro. My GPA is back at a 3.8 as of now. Do you think the one C+ will likely affect my acceptance?

I don't think it will really affect you... with a 3.8 you are a very competitive applicant. Also, you didn't get a C+ in the more important pre reqs (like A & P). I think you will be fine.

I agree... you should be fine my dear. Just learn from it and use it as motivation to get into your program of choice, and succeed

I got a C+ in anatomy and similarly have a very high overall GPA (3.75). I got into nursing school - a great BSN program. You can do it! :)
Thanks y'all!!

I doubt one c+ will be bad. It always depends on the applicants, how many are applying, what their grades are, GPAs are. Good luck.

The nursing program in the state college here told me they determine your gpa based off specific courses and nutrition was not included in that. It is a pre req. but not used in that calculation. Mine uses A&P1&2 with labs, Micro with lab, college alg. and english. The rest are not included.

I wouldn't worry! With a good gpa and A's in your A & P's I doubt nutrition would have that much weight to alter your acceptance. It is an important class, but not in the same category as your a & p!
Thank you everyone for the kind words!!
