  1. Hi everyone, I have just a few questions! I am currently a public school 2nd grade teacher and wanting to make the switch to nursing. I was just wondering if schools will weigh in my graduate school transcript as well. I have a bachelors of arts in psychology GPA of 3.0 and I have a masters in childhood education GPA of 3.9. I took statistics in 2007 and received a C+.I have no other prereqs done except intro to psy I received a B+ but its been alongg time. 1. Will programs focus on my Gpa of 3.9 will it help me or will they focus on my undergrad? 2. Would you retake statistics? 3. Im really interested in NYU ABSN (even tho I cant afford it I already have 70k in loans ) just wondering what prereqs should I take first before applying? 4. For someone like myself with a bachelors and a masters should I go the Associates degree way? 5. What is the most affordable route in becoming an RN? 6. For any teacher turned nurse, when you went on interviews did they ask why youre making the switch? What did you say?!? Or maybe what was your answer to the questions: why nursing and why nursing now? Thankssss guyssss
  2. Okay so I am Currently a teacher in NY realizing and wishing I could have gone to nursing school. I absolutely can not teach anymore. I realized I made a mistake. I got discouraged years ago because of my undergraduate grades, they were not high enough. I have a bachelors of Arts in psychology and mistakingly went on to get a masters of science in Education. I have a list of reasons as to why I am done teaching altogether. My real question is do I have a chance at getting into an ABSN program now? I have my heart set on NYUs ABSN program.With my graduate degreee I only received A's and A- and Have a 3.9 GPA. However with my bachelors I received a 3.0 but what really worries me is the grades i received in Math and statistics. Does it automatically disqualify me? In 2007 I earned a C+ in intro to stats. I know that for all nursing schools that prereq was taken way too long ago and I would need to retake it anyways but would it still be counted against me? Then I took statistics of psychology in 2009 and passed it with a B. Does that count as statistics ,it is still within the 10 year range. But it gets worse in 2005 I took college algebra and withdrew only to attempt to take it again in 2007 and failed it I was not focused. I dont have any other prereq under my belt. Im willing to start from scratch I just dont want to waste my time. Do I stand a chance. Can anyone relate? Im 32 now and my graduate transcript shows I can get straight As but my undergraduate transcript is all over the place? Can anyone relate?
