hello! i'm a student trying to get into the nursing program. however, i received a c average for the prereqs. i was wondering if there is someone who can help me or give advice as to what i can do to better my chances.
These days competition to get into the nursing programs can be stiff. If your grades are not going to do it, I'll highlight some serious extracurriculars. Volunteer work - hospitals, nursing homes, etc.
They may help your standing, though I know a lot of 4.0 students that are still being turned away. Life experiences can count for a lot if applicable.
Hope that is helpful.
