   Withdrew from nursing school. Any alternative majors in case nursing doesn't work out for me?

   rougewitch replied to Julia Hart's topic in General Students

   I don't have any advice for you, and I'm the last person qualified to help as I'm still a student doing prerequisites, but I admire your dedication to keep going. Nursing comes with a lot of grueling...

   rougewitch replied to iwong's topic in School, College Programs

   rougewitch replied to SydC's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Where to go for nursing school

   Where to go for nursing school

   rougewitch replied to SydC's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I really don't mean to discourage you by saying this, but both your overall GPA and science GPA are pretty low, and it's not just for California standards. California is highly competitive for both...
