I know in order for me to be competitive with other students to get into a program, I need A's and B's. Unfortunately, I got C's in 3 of my major classes Physiology, Microbiology, and Anatomy. I asked my counselor if I could take those classes again and she said "Do not take them again". She told me if I did take them again, it would look bad and told me just move forward. But, i've seen a couple old post from members here telling people to take your C's over again.
So, if i can't take any classes over then how do i improve my chances of getting into a program? I was thinking about applying to every community college program I can anyway. I was also thinking about going to a LVN program and once I finish that I will do an LVN to RN bridge program.
I really want to be a nurse but i feel confused about my situation right now:eek: . Should I just talk to the dean of my school and tell them i need to take these classes again or should i just go with my original plan?
I just checked a couple of the local community colleges (Northern California) and they both penalize students for "the number of repeats, withdraws, no credits, and incomplete grades in the core sciences."
As several people have said, even if you CAN repeat the courses, you need to check with the specific programs that you're considering to determine if it would be in your best interest.
