It all depends on how bad your attendance was. I think the best thing to do is to go to a community college and do your best. Most nursing schools require 2.5 GPA or higher. So do your best in college. I'm sure it wont be a problem to get into a good nursing school. Its a very very good career choice. My cousin has been an RN for only 3 years. She makes $8,000 a month.
