It is unfortunate for us to be in this type of predicament. I am pleased to hear someone who is in the same boat as I'm have so much will to not give up so easily. Although we may not have seem to excel in our RN pre req courses, it doesnt mean that we are idiots. There are many things that can factor in to why we didnt successfully obtain an "A" or that "B" in the class. My flaw is my poor time management of keeping everything in balance: excercising (due to my familial poor health background), managing time for my family, studying and spending time with my significant other.

I actually followed the general course pattern outline (for CSU transfers) and did not consult with a counselor until my end of my sophomore year. i personally thought of pursuing the EMT program at LBCC but i am at a point where i need to get out of community college and transfer elsewhere, perhaps a university or cal state.

I was thinking about going to West Coast University but its quite a drag paying 100k + for the 38 month BSN program. 2 of my friends go there and have 1 full year left. They suggested I go there and apply so I can save all the stress and hassle. Just going by what you said about National University and your lists of applications that you made out to the various universities. I come to realize how big of a hole I am in. To answer your question about experience in voluntary work inside a hospital. To be frank, i currently have no experience.. I should have consulted with my professors or a friend so i have something on my resume. With that being said i have a long way ahead of me.

thanks to all of the postings made on my thread. Yeah i am bit discouraged and down that my grades are not up to par with those who I am competing with. I am considering on going to a private college or probably retaking Microbiology and Anatomy again so i can better the odds that im against. My first attempt at physiology i got a W because i was overwhelmed on the demands from my advisor, 2nd attempt i foolishly took physio simultaneously with microbiology (which i shouldnt have done). Now with my third attempt i am taking physio with a low division english course and sociology. I realized that i poorly managed the time given to me and i have acknowledge that i need to make the appropriate sacrifices to reach my dreams and aspirations of being a nurse.

Hello everyone I got quite of a situation. This is my junior year and i am currently enrolled at LBCC and i am trying to get into the RN program, but unfortunately my grades stand as A (stats), C (psych), C (microbiology) C (anatomy) and D ( physiology but retaking this fall again for the 3rd time) and sociology (taking it this fall). Just looking at the grades that i currently have my GE's (transferable) average out to a 3.25-3.3, but on the downside a 2.83 gpa overall (including remedial courses) Do you guys suggest that i stay at LBCC hoping to get into the program or transfer on over to a csulb or csula or maybe a private college such as National University, Mount St. Mary's or Biola, so that i can take a shot at getting my BSN? *Please I need some personal advising. I would gladly appreciate it!
