Speaking of nursing school, last week I had a bit of a set back. In all my clinical classes we are required to take and pass a dosage calculation exam for that level..... I am not one to make up excuses but math is one of things I am not good in at all. My problem is not working the problem out, it's recalling the correct formula to use (and no they don't give us a formula sheet, we must remember all the formulas by memory) So I take my exam, and I didn't pass. They give us one more time to retake it and if we do not make the passing grade, then we get dropped from the course. Well, I retook it last week and.....I missed it by one question. FML. I was so frustrated with myself when my teacher showed me the test! Tried to be strong and show as less emotion as possible but the more I stared at my test the more my eyes watered.......As far as I know, I have been dropped from my clinical class which means that I will have to repeat it in the spring; which puts me behind my class....which means that I may not be able to graduate on time. I'm okay with it now, it just sucks that I have to repeat it because of a math exam not because I didn't do the work...
That's life for ya.
All I can do is focus on what I'm left to deal with which is my lecture class........ and keep my chin up.
Hey Bee, all the best with your future exams. I won't graduate with the rest of my class, if that is any consolation. I am wayyyyyy behind on my dissertation and had to get an extension!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nadine! It still kinda sucks but I'm okay with it..... Good luck to you too girl!!
