i live in california also, los angeles area. My preferred schools are SDSU and CSULB.

Thanks for the responds. In regards to out of state schools, If i transfer out of state then I am going to try to transfer with WUE Schools ( Western Undergraduate Exchange Program) That support nursing program. From what i saw it is only 4: Sacramento, Colorado, Alaska, west oregon. For my GPA, if I retake a chemistry class i will be pushed up to a 3.61. I hope thats good enough. Has anyone gotten into a cal state with a similar GPA? For TEAS im going to get the ATI study guide and study all of spring since Ill be taking the exam in summer.

My last fall semester I finished my last science prerequisite (intro to biochem). Now that I am researching schools I am starting to become nervous. Competitive GPA's for schools in California are at an average of 3.8 for sciences. I don't think my gap is terrible it's a 3.46 but when compared to the average I get really discouraged. I still haven't taken my teas test or have work experience. I will be doing that over summer. I guess my question is has any one here gotten into a cal state BNS program with a similar GPA. I am also considering applying to out of state schools. I keep hearing from other pre nursing students that it is much easier to get into programs in other states. Does anyone know of any good programs in other states. Maybe Hawaii state university or Oregon state?
