Hey all, I am concerned, and a little obsessed with my GPA in nursing school as well as prereqs for cRNA programs. In my undergrad I was an Ag major, until I became undecided and wanted to go into the health field. While struggling to find my passion, I took way too many credit hours at once, including A&P, orgo, got my CNA license, etc. I ended up getting C's and D's and became very discouraged. I eventually found my way in to community health, but upon graduating decided that I was no longer interested in that. I wanted something that provided more autonomy. I am now in a 15 month ABSN program that started this fall and ends next December. I figured things out, re took A&P 1 and got an A, took A&P 2 and orgo/biochem, and got A's in both of those, and am doing well in my program now. I just finished up my first semester, and project myself to get around a 3.8-3.9 GPA if everything plays out the way I plan. My only concern is all of those C's and D's in the beginning. Will those bring my science GPA down and hurt my chances of getting in to a program or will schools see that I corrected my mistakes? Also, the school I am at now (SIUe) has a cRNA program that I will be really looking in to. Im hoping that doing well in my ABSN program helps my chances of getting in.
