What you really need to do is find out from your health advisement office what kind of GPA you need to be getting in order to be accepted. Even though the minimum is 2.5, you need to know if the people accepted all had GPA's above 3.0, 3.5 etc. Please don't be so hard on yourself. Anatomy and Physiology is very hard. I am just now finishing my A&P II. I got a C+ in A&P I. The CC where I am attending is not as competative as a lot of others. Even though I got a C in A&P, if I do well on the teas test I should have no problem getting into the nursing program. Every school is different. Some will look down on that C and even is you retake the class, retaking the class will also look bad. So you just need to find out the specifics on your school. Find out the selection criteria they use to determine who is accepted and who is not. Then go from there. You may have to choose a different school to attend. But do not give up. It is still possible to be accepted somewhere. Good luck.:)

I have seen several people on this forum talk of taking a class over when they were unhappy with thier grade. Is this an option for you?
I haven't taken A&P yet, however I understand that it is a difficult couse.
