Poor dear!

I may make a B in my Math 0308. So far I have made a A in pschology, a A in eng 1301, and in everything else I have taken. I am taking A&P this summer. Is the B in math going to destroy my chances? I know it is the eng, psch, and Bio that GPA really counts. However, in all of the other pre reqs, if less then a A is made, does it have a huge impact on the points of getting into the nursing program?

Good luck! That is smart to have the prereqs done. Is UT hard to get into if you make perfect grades? I heard it is a good school.

After what you said about A&P, I went just to check, and sucessfully registered for both Human development and A&P I for this summer:)

It is too late because I already payed for this summer. And if I wanted to take A&P 1 instead for this summer the classes are already all filled up:crying2: And I work full time, so I did not have time to devote to lab, and that is also why I was afraid to take it this summer and make a B. I do know that many nurses are associates, so maybe I was silly to worry. No one wants to be out that many nurses. Actually, that is a great idea, to go for ADN first if I can do the rest online. Do you know any online colleges that do not require students to work full time first? If I do not find a nursing job for a few months I still want to continue my education in that time.

I am taking it so I will be ready for A&P one and two. I want to really be ready for it, and not risk a B. Also it will let me go for lvn if something bad happens and I need a quick route. That is a wonderful idea when it comes to course planning though. I can handle heavy loads, so I can take all the nurses pre reqs this coming year, If I decide to go really heavy I could get into bsn by fall 2012. But for some reason my grandfather does not want me in prarieview, and I plan to eventually get my masters, because I want to be a nurse practitioner. Would it be better to go for associates, and incorporate bachlors prereqs, then be a weekend nurse while finishing up prereqs? How hard is it to find a job with a ADN? I also heard tell they might not accept associate degrees anymore, and I am not sure if this is false or not. But I live with my sixty two year old grandma and I do not know if it would be fair or right not to get the ADN and get out, then work while going to school.

Yes, that is true. It is good people cannot take them online, because they need to learn it well for nursing. Thank you very much. The way I would pack on the classes for a BSN would have it finished in the same time as ADN. Only a semester longer, but that is a semester wasted. The main problem is that looked into ADN to BSN classes, and most of them required working as a full time or part time nurse, and if it takes awhile to find a job, then it may take a while to qualify for the program. Your advice was helpful though.

I thought so too, but I found a online intro to A&P, I will only have to go in for test days. I will just have to take a extra english, two histories, two governments, two more maths, and chemistry to complete pre reqs. I am considering Prarieview as well.

Ok, I am a freshman in lone star college cy-fair. I am in pre-nursing courses. Well, there are a different set of courses to take to enter the associates at my college then there would be to get a bachelors elsewhere. I do not want to transfer to a school too far because I do not want to quit my job. It may take longer for the bachlors, because I started under the associate plan. If I changed to bachlors I would have to take some different coures. I plan to only work weekends after I get in the nursing program. . I plan to ultimately get my masters and specialize in women's health. But I am trying to decide if it is risky to take only courses for the bachelors, then not get accepted to it. I have a 4.0 but am not sure whether to bank everything on going for bachelors before associates, I do not have time to waste and I need a degree under my belt. As a safety net, I am taking a online course these summer in intro to A & P, even though I will be taking A &P one and two next year. If I decide to go for associates, I will do the rest of my school online. If I apply for bachelors programs, I will be applying to downtown houston medical center colleges. Does anyone have some advice?
