Here's my situation: a really awkard one

Published

I've taken all my pre req for RN program and gotten

c in anat, b in micro, and c in physio ( i had to repeat it 3 times in order to get the required gpa).

Then I also did my back up plan , which is the LVN route : A in pharm, B in mental health , A in transitional, and unfortunately F in CNA.

With grades like this, is it still possible to become a nurse?

Please help me by giving me suggestions

thank you!

If you want it bad enough and find great study methods that work better for you - anything is possible.

Sit down with a counselor or trusted friend to see what's stopping you from getting A's.

Good luck

In most places you are going to need to retake anything lower than a B (and maybe some of the Bs as well depending on how competitive it is where you live...here if you don't make As you don't get in) to bring those grades up. Cs and Fs are definitely not going to be compatible with being accepted to nursing school in most places.

There are a lot of resources out there to teach you how to study. Take advantage of them. Your school counselor would be a good starting point.
