I dont think that they look at midterm grades. What matters is your pre-req GPA for when you submit your application. If you didnt finish ALL your pre-reqs when you submit your application, you must be enrolled in all those last classes the semeste...
When I used to be at this nursing school I had this one clinical instructor who told me "I will do whatever it takes to make sure you dont pass this class" and got her wish. Absolutely, but Im tryin to go back to nursing school at a different school...
Well, all i can say is you got to find some inner strength within yourself and realize how far you have come and how far you can go from this point. Everyone needs improvement in something, nobody is perfect. You can do it, just believe in yourself...

Not exactly sure as to how to help, but I think this MIGHT help you. I know its a nursing course, BUT what about getting someone who is good in biology to help you. Like someone who is good in a&p stuff, I think that if you get the a&p rea...

Yeah cause I took this nutrition course called Human nutrition and when I tried to see if it could count as my nutrition at this other school, they didnt accept it because they wanted "human nutrition and diet therapy." LOL! Some schools can get tec...

You should speak to an advisor, they could answer your question better than anyone off the boards because each school is different. Some schools will and some wont; depends on the school.

Well, maybe you could look into applying into another nursing school where your GPA is acceptable. There is always more than one nursing school. Still work hard to bring your grades up though! You can choose to go the LPN route, but you'd still hav...
1. Put your trust in God 2. Study in short bursts. study for a few minutes and then take breaks in between. You remember the first and last things you study, so if you study in short bursts, you'll retain more vs trying to study it all at once an...
I suggest that you take a deep breath and pray for a passing grade. I was in the same boat today with a test and was the last person to turn my test in and I felt like crying and like my dreams were slipping away, but the teacher posted the grades a...

I dont know of any good chemistry websites, but maybe you can see if your school offers tutoring in chemistry (usually its free_). I would go to the chemistry department or a tutoring area at your school to find tutors. Its usually better one-on-one...

Maybe you should wait to see what your test results are. I JUST finished taking a test in a nutrition class and was almost for certain I failed and prayed with each test question.LOL!!! Then when I got the test results back, I actually did WWAAAAYY...

Lol, Momtojosh and I must have the same bio teacher because my teacher keeps saying the same stuff like" you all should already know this, so Im not gonna go over this" or "we arent gonna go over this because you all will be going over this next seme...
I used to be in a nursing program years ago, but would be so paranoid about making mistakes that sometimes I would be very nervous in clinicals and this in turn would make my professors give me a lot of negative feedback (I still have a deep fear bec...
What would be the best thing to do as a student nurse if you were assigned a pediatrics patient (around 5 years old) and were to take her VS and do an assessment on the patient (before her scheduled surgery), yet the patient was very uncooperative an...

School B!!! I have to drive 45 minutes to go to my school, so I know what you mean. Its better to pay for the gas and go to a good school vs getting into a school that is closer and have a bad experience and wishing you went to the other school just...
Yeah...the school that Im applying for only looks at the grades you made in the required pre-reqs too. So I agree with ChinacatSN. I woudnt waste time with some courses that wouldnt count. They determine your gpa with the prereqs. I would advise y...
For me, this is the kind of teacher I admire: 1)Patient and someone who LIKES their job 2)Open enough for students to feel like they can ask questions and not always answer questions with, "read the book" (sometimes you just dont get what the book s...
