I am 18 years old just finished my first year in college!! woop woop! im a nursing major and im in community college...planning on transferring out after next year to a four year. i dont want my associate i want my bachelors. ANYWAY, i've gotten A and B+s in all my courses so far, but my first science course (a&p1) i just got a C. im super scared...is this it for me? is there still hope? how hard is a&p 2? if you've gotten into a program with a C can u please tell me what school u went to so maybe i can check it out? im in NYC by the way

I ended up taking a and p 1 FIVE TIMES BEFORE I PASSED. At the time, I thought this was the end of the world, 5 years later I can promise you that I had no trouble in nursing school or passing the nclex and no one has ever asked me about it since.

Personally, I would suggest just retaking it. And it is only the end of the world if you let it be.

Since you are only in community college, it won't be as serious as the universities. But that doesn't mean slack off. I know the community college I go to, most people get a C in A&P 1 and do better in A&P 2. I actually got a B in A&P 1. While it is satisfactory, it is not the best but my advice is do better in A&P 2 and you'll most likely be accepted into the nursing program. Unless it really bothers you, I would retake it. Remember A&P is the fundamentals of basically any health career so understanding that is important.
