Hey guys! So I’m currently 20 and attending CPCC, working toward getting into the ADN program. Unfortunately, I messed up pretty badly and ended up withdrawing from Anatomy & Physiology I (BIO 168) twice.
I’m planning on retaking it in Spring 2027, and my goal is to get an A in both BIO 168 and BIO 169 before applying to the ADN program in October 2027.
My current GPA is a 3.875, and I’ve gotten mostly A’s in my other classes. I also recently started CNA classes and plan on studying really hard for the TEAS to hopefully get an advanced score.
My biggest concern is whether having multiple W’s on my transcript, especially in the same science course, will significantly hurt my chances of getting accepted, even if I earn A’s when I retake the classes and do really well on the TEAS.
I’m honestly starting to panic because I feel like I’ve already fallen behind, and I really can’t afford to spend another year taking classes just to get rejected.
For anyone who has gotten into CPCC’s ADN program or knows how their admissions work, please be honest with me. Do I still have a realistic chance of getting accepted, or should I seriously consider switching majors now?
I really want to become a nurse, but I also don’t want to keep putting time and money into something if my chances are already significantly lower because of my withdrawals. Any advice would be appreciated!
