Hi, I am currently taking the pre-requirements. I finished basically everything and this will be my last semester before applying. I have had a very rough time these past 2 years and my grades suffered a lot. I have a GPA of 2.72 and B's in almost all my classes, however I do know the material, I love medicine but I feel that with those grades I wont be able to get in and that scares me. I spent the past 5 years studying, first learning English and now all the requirements RN schools ask for. I did my CPR, I have volunteer hours, all my shots but my grades are not as good as they could be and that scares me. Should I give up or apply and see what happens?

I am taking that class as well, what i do is i read the chapter in the book( is a lot but it does help) then i go to youtube and watch videos about the blood, heart .... then i google the websites to practice that had helped me a lot good luck

I am a visual learner so I actually need to see stuff to retain it in my head. What I do is I read the whole chapter and i try to understand what is about, in my head I always try to find a connection or to make sense what I am reading, then i go online must of the books have websites, those websites have games and flashcards where, thats my best tool. Taking notes is good as well, just with your own words, study in a confi place and very important try to see how you learn best studying during the day or night, with bright light or not stuff like that. good luck

THANK YOU

Congratulations!!! ... at least you are accepted, what ****** me off is that there is a huge need for nurses and medical staff in general but is so hard to get into the program and do all the requirements schools need!!!!!!!!!

lol... just click where the happy face is and select the cartoon thingys and thats it.

CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :balloons::nmbrn::hpygrp:

I am so sorry to hear that.... I think you should be honest with your teachers, they are humans like students are and they will understand. I hope that it wont be anything else but a false alarm, you have to rest and take care of yourself. good luck and God bless you.

It depends on the school you are applying for. If you take 2 classes per sememster it should be between 1 and 1 1/2 years, now my advicego slow because is a lot and you have to be careful with your grades. Good luck !!!!
