Hillsborough Community College-Fall 2014

Published

Hello everyone,

So my dream since I can remember has been to become a nurse; however, it seems as if it will never happen. I recently finished my pre-requisite courses to apply to the fall semester of the HCC nursing program. While I did not get any C's I made mostly B's :blink:earning A's in two classes and one lab. I realize this is not good enough since it puts my GPA at around a 3.38. Since I did not fail any of my classes, I don't believe I will be able to retake them. Is there any possible way to retake them? Or any way to increase my GPA since they mainly look at the pre-requisite courses? If not, what other options do I have for becoming a nurse? If anyone is out there who could offer any help it would be greatly appreciated. I will submit my application regardless but I don't have any high hopes of getting accepted, if there is anyway to increase my chances I would be so grateful to find out!

Wonderful! Who will be coming to the CPR class with me on Monday? I know there was another person at least.

I took the class about a month ago. Take notes there is a test at the end and unlike most CPR classes you are not given the answers, however with that said if you pay attention the test is easy. Also wear comfortable clothes you will be bending and getting on the floor to perform CPR.

You're welcome. I think I posted it in 2015 HCC Spring. Take a look there. If you can't find it I will post for you in about a half hour.
