Hey nurses,I went to bmcc to pursue a nursing career in 2011 and finished most pre reqs with an A or B+ the one class i got a c- in was mat104 math for health sciences. Bmcc told me I should start looking for other schools since they dont accept students who got a bad grade in that class.What should I do? I also havent taken any science courses such as chem, should I take it at this school and transfer?

Make tracks and find another program.At this stage you are no different than any other pre-nursing student. You just need to find a program.... Personally I'd start that process soon as possible before your science classes are considered "stale" and you'll have to repeat. This can be anywhere from 2-5 years or long as ten, but either way again sooner you get into a nursing program the better.
