Can you guys tell me what is the best nursing school in Texas preferably the Houston area? Ive search up and there are about 6 schools in my area that offer bsn program. So far I'm interested in Texas Women University. Is there also programs in the state that pays for your classes in return you have to work for them for a certain amount of time. I read it somewhere in this forum but forgot to bookmark the page. I'm completely new at this. I don't mind working for them if they pay for my tuition.

Ok I got it now. My cum is 3.23 and my prereq gpa is 3.88 thank you guys!! I'm surprise I'm still in the 3.2 area since I fail a class and did so bad in my other advance biology classes. That organic chemistry was a killer! Took most of my studying time. Well I'm glad I'm still met more than then minimum requirement. Now I just got to make straight A's in my five remaining prerequisite for bsn class. Thank you again guys!

This is more complicated than I thought. I just put all my grades in a online gpa calculator. Didn't know about the quarter thing. Could I post my grades on here and you see how you could help me please? I just dont wan't to waste around 60 bucks sending in applications and transcripts. I already in need of money to take care of my family. I know it's frugal but I want to save some money.

So did I get it right guys?

I would like to add how I got 3.53. I just enter all the classes I took. This whole gpa thing is making me have a headache. I went to my community college and my cum was 3.6 and my university gpa was 2.36. Could you guys please help me calculate all my gpa. I just don't want to send different transcript to different school and waste my money if I don't even meet the gpa requirements.

Hey guys this forum has been very helpful. I went to check at schools I'm interested in my state. Some only look for prereq gpa while other look for overall gpa. Well I went on google and look up gpa calculator. My prereq gpa for nursing is 3.8 while my overall is 3.5. I'm a little confuse on the overall gpa though. What do they mean by overall? All of the classes I took while in college? Also what classes count towards science gpa? The reason I'm confuse on overall gpa was prior to this I was a biology major. It says on my transcript undergraduate is 2.36 (ouccchhhh). I just lost motivation and got really depress after failing calculus 3. I don't know why they even make us take that much math for a biology major. My school also require to get a minor in order to graduate. I no longer want to be a biology student. I lost the motivation. I'm hoping that nursing will give me a second chance. So when they mean over all gpa does that mean my undergraduate gpa or does that mean all of my classes taken so far? Please excuse my stupidity. I just been searching on this forum for the exact same thing but didn't find the answer. Sorry if this thread already been made. I just really want to get my life together now and hoping for a brighter future.

Hello I'm having difficulty understanding all of these nursing terms. I'm an older student due to having a family. Recently I've been researching the nursing field trying to make a better living for my family. However, there are a lot of terms that I don't quiet understand. What is the difference between associate degree and a bachelor if both of them take two years to accomplish? I have taking most of the prerequisites and core classes. I really want to get the bachelors because I have heard you get a better chance to further your education with a bachelor degree? Does a bachelor mean you take the prerequisites then aplly to nursing school? Associate degree is when you go straight into nursing school?
