    Trust in Jesus replied to forevermn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Trust in Jesus replied to hcjbfs's topic in General Students

    Your science GPA is awesome! Great work! You never know you might be accepted even with the low TEAS score. It all depends on who else applies. You should look into which schools will accept a second...

    Trust in Jesus replied to stefie0225's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Trust in Jesus replied to MUSEic's topic in General Students

    Are your C's in any of the nursing prerequisites? Does SDSU look at the entire GPA? You may want to call the nursing department at SDSU and ask if they will even count the second attempt. Some schools...

    Trust in Jesus replied to Katie19973's topic in General Students

    Trust in Jesus replied to Nurse2bCerebellum's topic in TEAS Exam Help

  14. How did you decide?

    Trust in Jesus replied to Shelbypm's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Trust in Jesus replied to KiusLady's topic in General Students

  20. Need RN career advise

    Trust in Jesus replied to destela2's topic in General Students

    I can't answer all your questions. But, I haven't heard of ANY school only looking at the standardized test. They look at a combination of science grades, gen. ed. grades, standardized tests, and...

  21. CLEP for Chem or just take one semester of gen Chem?

    Trust in Jesus replied to Quota's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
