Help!!!

Hi everyone. I want to get into the rpn program either humber or gbc college. Although I have applied for both colleges but I didn't get any reply. I'm already worried about the admission testing since my high school transcript is horrible and I ****** up grade 12 c math with 21% (teacher made ****** up mistake as I told her I dropped the course and she put me back into the course without letting me know). Taking math again.I am also taking chemistry grade 11 u for the third time now. (the 1st time it was 43%, 69% and now midterm is 82%) I even failed eng 11 c with 43% 1st time for god's sake I don't know how. Anyways the main reason was I had been through some depression for almost 4 years. Anyways my biggest concern here is what are the chances of me getting selected for the program? Should I take the pre health? With having such transcript i'm afraid college might not even consider me. Any advice or help will be really appreciated :(

    Well, not knowing your personal background or history, I can't say for certain, but I can tell you that with grades that low, you might have a hard time getting straight into any nursing program. Perhaps enroll in General education classes at your location university to bring your gpa up.

    I would seriously consider doing a pre health program first to bring your marks up. Good luck.

    The year I applied for nursing school, the average was 84 percent (2005). It is higher now. I also suggest Pre Health to improve your chances. If your grades are not averaging at least 80 percent, it's unlikely you'll be accepted.

    Hi,

    I would definitely take the pre-health program. I took pre-health at Humber because my high school marks weren't that great. I got honours in it and I'm doing the university nursing program at Humber now. You have to get at least an 83% average to get into the BN from the pre-health. I'm not sure what the cut-off is for the RPN program though. Here's a link to the exact pre-health program I took at Humber if you're interested.

    Give you a heads up, I got waitlisted with 88% highschool avg, 3.67 GPA post-secondary @ GBC RPN Fall. I do think it's less competitive (Not too much) for Winter intake.
