4.0 sGPA and 3.7 non-science GPA since I started school again. Not as hard as I would have imagined.
ochemlover45 thanks for the reply. Any certain reason you went for the BSN as the bachelors? How much if any are you working during that course load Congrats on the GPA etc. Thanks again.
The main reason was time. I know that nurses and allied health degrees have the lowest matriculation rate of any degree but I'm approaching 30 and needed a degree to apply. It would have took me significantly longer to apply if I wanted a biology or neuroscience degree.
I work about 24-32 hours a week and volunteer 2 hours a week.
