Will colleges accept me?
My eleventh grade of high school I failed second semester chemistry, and in my senior year I failed first semester AP chemistry and AP biology.
There's a good side to the story though. Second semester of senior year I got an A in AP chemistry, AP English, and AP Government. I dropped biology in favor of a CNA class, which I also got a license in. I took the AP tests and received 5s in AP Human geo, AP bio, and AP English. I only got a 4 on the chemistry test though. My ACT score was 29.
The reason why I failed those classes was because I was going through a very difficult time. I was struggling with my eating disorder, and I had depression. I'm better now though.
Also, I spent a year and a half in Iraq as a CNA in one of the hospitals. I'm back in the states to get a nursing degree so that I can have a steady income as I pursue a writing career in California or London. Will I be accepted into nursing school?
My GPA is 3.0, by the way.

I had a similar situation and was accepted into three really great universities. You should apply and not be to concerned about high school history. You're obviously very smart (5's on AP exams) and you have experience in the hospital setting. Go for it. You have a good chance.

besides the reality that faculties are keen on age and adulthood, the main needed ingredient is your point of preparation. i'm no longer advantageous of the minimum age by way of fact maximum faculties do no longer bump into this kind of subject on a classic foundation. in case you have carried out the needed stipulations, then you definately could be seen as an applicant. faculties do tend to attraction to back from formidable toddler prodigies over the venture of adulthood, so while you're very youthful, say 15 or youthful, do no longer set your hopes too intense. while you're graduating a 12 months early or something alongside those lines then you definately could be thoroughly positive and be seen alongside with the 18 12 months previous applicant pool.
