I have finished all of my nursing prerequisites with a 3.0 gpa or higher in each class. I am volunteering at a hospital. I am doing a CNA program this summer. Despite all of these things, everytime I look at websites for nursing schools it seems like I need another random class, more volunteer hours, etc. There's always something I don't have and I don't have the time to do all these extra things for all the different schools so basically I have to choose one school a year to apply to. Is anyone else having these problems? It seems impossible to get into nursing school and I am getting so frustrated!

I was hoping to apply to Shoreline's nursing program for winter '17, but I am a little discouraged because I will only have 100 points. The only way I can get more points is by getting the 6 points for volunteering 192 hours, but I would not be able to get that many hours before the application deadline because I am still working on getting my 100 hours for the 3 points. I am going to apply anyways, but I just don't feel very confident knowing that the minimum amount of points is 103. So stressful!
