So, I think I've decided to do an Accelerated BSN program (I have a B.A. and an M.A., so I think this is the best way to go!). I was looking through the Ged Ed requirements to get into the program, and at first I thought I just needed a couple of courses to supplement my prior education. Then I actually took a look at my undergrad transcript (where most of my Ged Ed's come from). Oy. Too much rugby practice and not enough homework, I guess :-).
I'm hoping that, because the requirements are generally things like Algebra and Trigonometry (which I took and got an A in high school) will count, whereas my upper level calculus couses that I actually took in college (but got a C in - requirement is to get a B or better), so I'm hoping I can still get out of re-taking the classes, because I certainly do have the information.
I need to talk closer to the school, because although I haven't taken the exact course they are looking for, I have certainly taken either a higher level course, or something similar. Does anyone have any experience with these kinds of things?
In my experience, my program accepted my similar and higher level courses, but as far as I know, there was no consideration given to the difficulty level of the courses as compared to other applicants, only GPA.
