I'm a current RN student at LBCC. Students generally do not get in the first try if there are a few discrepancies, even though, you did fairly well in ANAT, PHYSIO, and MICRO. First off, any C's on your transcript with make or break your chances of getting in. That said, you have a C for speech. Speech is a requirement for the RN program. Secondly, anything less than a 2.5 will not even be seen by Dr. Harrell. Actually, it is but it just looks bad. My suggestion is keep reapplying early but I don't think you have to turn in your transcript from CSULB unless thats where all of your GE's are... I've talked to previous students that got in with less than a 3.0 before. It's based on luck, really. However, there are other great schools out there besides LBCC. My friends at Golden West all agreed that their RN program is more organized and structured. I don't suggest doing the LVN program. If you want to become an RN, then stick with it. I know you'll be a wonderful nurse.
