4.0, kept it through nursing school. I had to keep my grades really high because I was a single parent counting on scholarships. In retrospect, I wish I'd kept a 3.2 and had more of a life during those three years. AND - your GPA is no reflection of how good a nurse you will be. I did great on the academic stuff but had more trouble with clinicals; being a perfectionist on a med-surg floor is a tough thing to do.

3.30 but I don't think that has any bearing on the kind of nurse I am.

Specializes in Case mgmt., rehab, (CRRN), LTC & psych.

I attended a private vocational LVN program that didn't look at prior college coursework or require prerequisites as long as you had the tuition money.
