Samuel Merritt University ABSN Program Prerequisites

Published

I have applied to Samuel Merritt's ABSN program for a fall '09 start (SF branch) and am wondering if anyone else who is either in the program or has applied does not feel like their online Patho and Pharm classes have adequately prepared them for entering nursing school. I got an "A" in Pharm and a "B" in Patho and don't feel like I have learned anything! I live in the Bay Area but am considering moving to DC to go to Georgetown University's 2nd degree program, even if I get in to SM because it requires you to take these classes again. Is this crazy or realistic? Help! Thanks!

It might be possible, depending on your circumstances but I had a 3.6 GPA and was rejected. Good luck to you.:D

Is it true that if you retake a class SMU will take the highest grade? I'm really interested in attending the ABSN program but need to retake a few classes. I remember hearing that the highest grade is considered, but i'm really not sure if that's true because most schools count retake's negatively... thanks for any info.. =)
