Thanks for your help. I looked into it, the programs I am applying to allow retakes, but I'm curious if it is still looked down upon. Thank you for your input!

Hello all, I am currently a student at Mizzou studying Health Sciences and will be applying to ABSN programs for Summer/Fall 2017. Right now, I have about a 3.4 pre req GPA, I have Physiology and Nutrition left to take which I hope will boost my GPA. I am also CNA at a nursing home here in Columbia, MO. I am worried about my low GPA as well as class history. I had to retake the anatomy lab, I got a C- the first time, but an A with the retake. I also retook Stats. I plan on applying to Mizzou, Rockhurst University, and MNU's ABSN programs which I have heard are all competitive programs. Any advice on whether or not retaking classes will hurt my application even though I got A's the second time around? Any other application advice is much appreciated! Thank you!
