Hi, All: I'm 48 and have it in my head to go back to school for my BSN. My first degree is a BA in English. I am enrolled in Chemistry and STRUGGLING. I will be LUCKY to get a C grade. The director of nursing at my school explained that even if I get C (required) there is no guarantee that i will be admitted to the program. It's highly competitive. She's saying I really need to get an A or B. For me, I do not feel this is possible! So, do I throw in the towel now? I'm worried to invest a full year of Chem and Bio and approx 9K only to get Cs when Cs don't seem they are good enough! Thanks for any and all words of wisdom! Jen M
