  13. BA with VERY low GPA, want to do 2 year RN program

    Yeah, but I don't think she can get in a BSN program with her past grades. I would go the ADN route, which still isn't easy! Getting in will be easier but staying in will not! She should take them...

    This is a great time to pick up used books and equipment for a fraction of the price! I've had good luck on craigslist, and my campus buy/sell-a-book page. Best
  23. Any TTC nursing students or pre-nursing students here?
