I was rejected from City Tech's nursing program for fall 2011. I have an A in psych 101, A in english 101, C+ in A&P 1, and C in math 1275. My cumulative gpa is 3.2 and my score on the Kaplan exam was a 71. I would like to try again for the spring 2012 semester, but I'm not sure of what I should do while I wait for the next Kaplan entrance exam this fall. Will the C in math 1275 stop me from ever getting accepted? I'm considering taking math 1272 (Statistics) to replace the grade from math 1275. (I thought the next level of math to replace the grade would be a pre-calculus class since math 1275 was trigonometry, but the nursing catalog says math 1272 would replace math 1275.) I'm currently registered for sociology 101 and A&P 2, but there's still time to drop and register for classes. Could taking these classes, and getting anything below an A completely ruin my gpa and any chance of getting into the program? Ofcourse I'd be trying my best, but my best may only get me a B+ and bring me down to a 3.0 . A 3.2 gpa is their bare minimum, and I would definitely like to raise mine. The options I've considered so far are: 1) Don't take any classes, pass the Kaplan exam, and hope a 3.2 gpa will be enough next time. (The passing grade for the Kaplan exam is a 60.) 2) Take sociology 101, A&P 2, and math 1272, work relentlessly to get three A's, and slightly raise my gpa. 3) Take sociology 101, and A&P 2, work very hard for two A's, and hope the C from math 1275 doesn't get me rejected again. I'd appreciate any advice or suggestions as to what I should do for a better chance of getting into the nursing program. Thanks~
