    Should I go for the ADN, BSN, or ABSN?

    zoe92 replied to ruby1989's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    ADVICE PLEASE

    zoe92 replied to ph94's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Your GPA is decent, but just get all A's. Most schools want you to have at least a 3.0, but really that means try for a 3.5 and above to be seen as a competitive

    What was your Pre-req GPA?

    zoe92 replied to Topher53's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
