I am an undergraduate student at UCF right now and will soon be graduating with my degree in Psychology. I am applying to UF's Accelerated BSN program for Fall 2012.
My first year of college was brutal! My first semester I made 4 Cs and 1 D. My second semester I made 2 Cs and 3 Fs. I had to retake the 3 classes I failed over the summer and I made 3 Cs. So... it has completely ruined my GPA. It seems like no matter how many As I make it barely brings it up.
But, thankfully UF only considers your most RECENT 60 credit hours towards your GPA. This is so great because my overall GPA is only a 2.6, but by the time I'm done taking classes my most recent 60 credit hours GPA will be around a 3.7-3.8.
Is anyone else suffering from a year of bad grades like me?
I wish every other school only considered your most recent 60 credit hours. UF seems like my only real hope to be accepted, but at the same time it's UF... not the easiest school to get into.
Is there anyone on here that's finishing their pre-reqs at SF College this semester? I'm doing A&P 2 w/Dr. S, and I remember a couple of students in my Micro class last fall mentioned that they were applying to UF for summer. Some of us may already be (and hopefully, soon will be) classmates!
And YAY to gator.girl.12!! Hope lots of us get good news today!
twobirds- I am finishing up at SF College. I'm taking A&P2 online with Sara Smith and also taking epidemiology. We were probably in the same micro class (Dr. Rios..hybrid). I remember there were several ppl in the class who were planning on applying to UF. Good luck to everyone! Congrats to gator.girl.12 for the awesome news!!!
