Can an "C" average student make it in the nursing world? Help Please

Published

Okay this is my last semester, i did 6 semester in all, my science and graduation prereqs are all done now it's just applying to the program.Only thing is that I have a 2.87 GPA due to few C's in my math and science courses. next week I'm taking teas test i'm so scared that I will barely past with the 60 passing grade. My heart is in nursing I have the experience in clincals I cant think nothing else, but nursing, so I'm asking can an "C" average student that is book dumb and clincal smart and making good descision make it through nursing school and become a RN. Thanks.

I'm sorry but I've never heard of anyone getting into nursing school with a GPA like that. I definitely agree with the advice to retake your sciences, although I do find that concerning...Bio was the easiest science I took. How are you going to ace A&P with that limited understanding, and worse, your more complex nursing classes after that?
