What Classes Do Nursing Schools Look At The Most?

Published

Besides looking at GPA, volunteer experience, testing scores, & points (in some schools), what classes do nursing schools look at the most? Are Science pre-reqs more heavily weighted? Or do they look at every pre-req the same?

It depends on the school, but 9 times out of 10 Anatomy, Physiology, Microbiology, and sometimes College English are weighed more heavily than cumulative GPA. Some ADN programs don't even consider cumulative GPA...

My school looks at your science courses, individual grades for all classes taken, CNA license, healthcare experience, NLN pre nursing exam grade.
