  1. help Low High school Gpa

    ILRN200 replied to MurkNurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Raise your GPA in college. Take all the pre-requs you can at a community college, and get a's and b's in all the classes. You can do it. My GPA in high school wasn't the greatest either. The nursing...

  2. New Grad - Offering to Work for Minimum Wage?

    ILRN200 replied to Music in My Heart's topic in General Nursing

  3. New Grad - Offering to Work for Minimum Wage?

    ILRN200 replied to Music in My Heart's topic in General Nursing

    ILRN200 replied to Medsport's topic in General Nursing

    ILRN200 replied to Medsport's topic in General Nursing

    I can't tell you what to do. For me, a little while ago I wanted to go to another place too (thought I was in a BAD situation), now I have changed units and am much happier. It seems as thought bing...

  9. My GPA is lower than 3.0 are my hopes of becoming crna done?

    ILRN200 replied to pogiboy67's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Taking easier classes is not a good way to raise your GPA. This strategy is very well known by universities. It would probably be best to take grad level courses to raise a GPA. Plus, that would be...
