Ok, I'm interested applying for accelerated secondary degree BSN program. I'm just wondering what're my chances.
I have a B.S. and a B.A. Unfortunately I took up too much, messed up and got an overall GPA of 2.72. I currently work as a lab tech and have been taking classes at a local technical college. I took CNA, intro psych, anatomy and physiology 1 (and still taking AP2) all with 4.0.... I still plan on taking Micro, Statistics, Nutritions, etc. depending on where I should focus applying first...
I don't have any CNA experience yet, but I do plan to get some before applying. As to experience of helping, I stayed up overnight for a cat, I helped a Dipolar sudicial guy, and I was always there for a paranoid friend whom even her family has turned against her -- I can be very understanding, compassionate and a good listener and I was told that I always looked so happy when I was in retail. I have much attention to safety and sterile techniques....
What do you think? If I have no chance for accelerated BSN, what about regular or even Assocaite's?

I was in a similar position like you are... take your ACT's and come plan a trip down to Brownsville, TX, and apply to this ADN program:

then click on admissions
the farther south you go and the more obscure PUBLIC schools you pick the better chances it is for you to get in. PM if you got questions
