Im in....with a 2.73 gpa

[superramvette]

Well our local CC uses a point scale system. 402 applied 100 accepted. I was the lowest gpa acccepted but one of the higher net scores (91 comp) so my points totaled 85.8 and the lowest accepted was 84.1, highest was 100.

So for those of you who dont think it can be done with a low GPA it can. I am by no means proud of my GPA, and there are circumstances that caused it ( for the last year it has been a 3.75). It was a 2.0 when I started my nursing pre reqs and i now have 100 hours so it was hard to even raise it to the 2.73.

I just wanted to share for those who are discouraged by their low GPA. It IS doable. I am so excited and cannot wait till fall RN program here in Chattanooga.

Well it sounds like you worked hard to get it up from 2.0.

Congrats on making into the program, no matter what number your GPA is!

Remember its only a number, one we work towards and it will change with time and classes going up or down.

Good luck!

What was your secret to doing well on the net? also, what cc are you going to?

[baldee]

Good job! I think they mainly considered the 3.75, the relevant gpa. Or that's what I'm hoping since I had a 2.75 transferred and 4.0 so far (6 week micro to go though - ??).

Anyway, you live in the best place in the world too. I'm jealous.

:yeah:
