Help! I need pre-nursing advice. I have been a veterinary nurse for 11 years and have recently decided to go back to school for Nursing. my GPA is not very high at 2.61 I didn't really care about school when I was younger and my GPA paid the price. I'm having trouble getting into nursing school. I have an associates degree in applied science so I don't know if it would be faster for me to go the BSN route or RN. Some people I've talked to also say if I'm having trouble getting into school for RN I should get my LPN then go back for RN I'm so confused. Every nursing school around me wants a different entrance exam. I have taken my NET and received good scores. Should I take the TEAS and HESI tests as well? Should I take some more classes to raise my GPA? Any advice would be appreciated.:heartbeat
