Hi everyone! Okay, so I have a few questions pertaining to grades. I am currently a prenursing student. So far, I have a 3.56 overall GPA and a 3.59 Institution GPA. The school I will be applying to requires a 3.0 GPA. But here is my worry. I received a D when taking college algebra. I am currently retaking this course hoping to at least make a B. However, my school does the whole grade average thing, for example a+f=c. In my case im hoping to make a b, b+d=c. However, im worried I may make a C. And c+d does not equal above a d. This grading system doesnt make sense to me. How does it work if a student first makes a D then makes a C? Also, anyone get into Nursing school with one D, after retaking the course? This is my only bad grade. Also, the point system when applying to Nursing programs, is this for every school? How does it work if it is? Ive heard they take Areas, A,F,D plus overall gpa plus teas score. Is this true? Thanks so much!!
