Is a B average really that bad?

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

Hi everyone! I'm currently pre-nursing, just starting out with my prereqs. I submitted my first assignment in my english class this week and when I got my grade back and it was a B+ I was disappointed. I don't want to sound ridiculous, but so far all I have managed to pull in school has been B's, and all I hear about nursing school is how incredibly competitive it is.

I have not taken any of my sciences yet, and I know how crucial an A in a&p is and I intend to get one, even if I have to retake the class.

Is a B average going to hurt my chances are being accepted into a program?

Specializes in Maternal Child, Home Health, Med/Surg.

Ouch! Here, there's a CC that goes on a point system. The university I applied to just solely looks at cumulative GPA. They accept 80 students every semester including summer. I applied for spring but if I don't get in, I'm applying for summer. Fall is the most competitive & usually the lowest GPA is 3.55. For spring & summer it's usually around 3.33. Good luck to you!!

Wow!! That's crazy. They only take fall admissions, and its only 35 spots. Good luck to you as well
