<p>What areas of the country are you interested in? You could look at Northeastern. It has a co-op program and has nursing and some other health programs. It's in Boston.</p>

3

<p>I'd look into B.C., maybe Brown because its very good school that is less likely to weigh you on poor test scores and low class rank, don't apply to many top tier ivy's however, they are really looking for those high numbers, go for schools that would want you and a couple that you want.</p>

4

<p>I realize that, however I was along the lines of looking at good mid-level schools that I would be accepted to.</p>

5

<p>look into schools that dont require SAT I scores</p>

6

<p>by the way, the 1200 is from the old SAT I took last year.</p>
