I got a B in both anatomy and physiology and I'm getting a little worried. I still have micro and I will bust my but to get an A. I'm taking a CNA class this summer. My school is point based. This past semester I've had a hard time balancing taking care of my baby on my own. If I didn't get an A on the final I would have gotten a a C! Phew! So though I was happy to get a B I'm still worried. My other prereqs are As except for 1 B. I just been worried my grades are bad (in the nursing world). Anyone get in with Bs in the sciences?

Yup all the time. Trust me, not everyone gets all A's in their pre reqs. Or in nursing school for that matter. With life and other factors its just not possible for everyone. B's are not C's. So you are at a good place.
Good luck.

I just got accepted into an RN program and was also worried my first AP was a B. Stay positive and good luck :)

In my school, anatomy and physiology are two different classes, they're not combined. I got B's in both of those classes. I got A's in microbiology and chemistry. This is my first time applying to nursing school and I got accepted to an ABSN program. Good luck!

Keep positive! I got into nursing school ( a really competitive ABSN) and all my prereqs were Bs ( well all my sciences). Keep applying. As and 4.0s are not everything.

I got accepted to an ADN with a B- GPA :) And my college is extremely competitive over 300 people apply for a 28 person program. Good luck :)

I was accepted to a BSN program with a B+ in A&P I and pre-calculus. :) Don't sweat it. In my area, pre-nursing students are told that as long as they have a 3.5 GPA or higher, they'll definitely get in somewhere.

If your overall GPA is good then you are fine. I have A's in anatomy/physiology but a B in Micro and got in to a BSN program so Im sure you are fine.

My prereq gpa is pretty good and my csu and uc gpa are.3.5↑ but my AA gpa is no longer very high but I'm retaking this class I dropped too late (and got an F!) In.
Yay! I still have hope : ) i think Cs make your chances ify. So im glad i didnt get a C. Not that that would make me give up.
