Thank you for the responses. I will take one extra semester to boost my GPA just a tad over 3.0. That should give me more options hopefully. Yeah, I've learned the retakes are actually what's making it hard to find a univ. Let's say I get a BS in Health Science then want to pursue nursing, how would that work? Would my GPA after graduating health science be the one I use to apply for BSN?

I'm currently attending a California community college and slacked off midway through my 2nd and 3rd year, failing general biology twice, and anatomy and physiology twice, but retook them both a third time and got A in both. I ended up finishing my final major pre reqs with 7 A's (gen bio, a&p, paramed bio, gen chem, stats, etc). Sadly, I'm just now turning my life around and growing up. A 2.8 GPA won't cut it for the majority of the universities im looking at in California, so I'm considering applying to out of state universities for more chances (hopefully). My goals include an out of state BSN program at a university, but my low GPA of 2.8 will for sure hold me back. I have yet to take the TEAS. I know I will work hard and score well on the teas. I also have no community service, or volunteer hours. I REALLY want to get my BSN at a university. Edit: after a bit of research, i answered some of my own questions, but opened new ones. My current plan is to take some extra classes to cut my GPA closer to 3.0, and study hard for the TEAS, maybe even get some volunteer hours or work experience in, then research some 2.5 min GPA Universities.. Am i missing anything in the process? Thank you.
