Really anxious

Published

Hello fellow hopeful nurses!

So I am a freshman in college and about 2 months ago I solidified that nursing is what I want to do. My grades aren't the best though. I had a 4.0 gpa in high school but due to some issues this semester I haven't been doing so well (it's been hard for me to transfer to a big, competitive Ivy Public school). Anyways, I may have to retake precalc and general chemistry next semester so that I can have better grades in those prereqs...is that the end of the world? I'm just so afraid of finishing all my prereqs in a year or two, applying to all these nursing programs (I'm basically going to apply to every one that exists in Georgia) and then not getting in...like what do you do then? Nursing is all I want to do. Sorry for my rant! Any advice is welcome!

To answer your question... Of course it's not the end of the world. Sounds like you've made up in your mind that this is what you want to do now you just need to stay focused. As you know getting in nursing school is very competitive just keep that in mind and give your absolute best in school. You'll be fine!! Good luck to you!!
