It is going to depend on your school and how they weigh things and how competitive it is. For some school you'd be fine, for others no chance

You certainly stand a better chance then if those B's were in any of the science pre-reqs. Like the above poster said, it depends on the number and quality of applicants for this particular program as well as how much they weigh other factors, like volunteer/hospital experience, pre-nursing testing, etc.

If you hadn't had the opportunity to attend an information session on your community college's nursing program, I'd encourage you to do so and ask how their admission criteria is weighed.

Thank u guys so much I feel much better,in regards to volunteering in the med Field. How do I do that do I just walk in to any clinic or hospital and ask for a form I can fill to volunteer. Anything else I can do besides doing good in test to get in and volunteering so I can have a higher chance of getting in
