Grades on science pre-reqs

Hey guys! This semester I decided to take microbiology and a nursing chemistry that my college has. I have an 89 in microbiology right now, but I really doubt I'm going to get an A because the tests are pretty much impossible. i only have a high grade because i did an extra credit thing and do really well in lab. also i'm a lost soul in chemistry but i think i'm going to make a b in the class. anyway should i retake these classes even with a b average? so far these classes are the only classes that are specific to getting into the nursing program. most kids got in with 4.0s and like really high HESI tests. but i don't know i have a lot of other classes to take that could help my grade. currently i have a 3.77 GPA. what do ya'll think?

    Hi, I don't think you should retake them because you still have a great GPA. So far the only sciences I've taken are Chem I & II, & have had an A in both. I have a 3.68 GPA, but I still have tons of other classes to take before I apply to nursing school so yes that will boost your grade if you do well in them. Good luck!

    I guess it depends on how competitive the program is. Have you talked to an adviser about where the bar is set? Even though my program only requires a 19 on ACT to apply, I asked and was told that unless you have a 24 it's extremely unlikely that you will be selected.
