Failed A&P twice!!

Nursing Students Excelsior

Published

Hello all!

I failed A&P twice already. First time because I took it over a summer 5 week accelerated course like 2 summers ago. Bad idea!! The 2nd time this semester. This semester was a regular 12 week semester but the professor is known to be extremely hard. He is a doctor and teaches like we are pre med students. I knew the material but his tests were EXTREMELY difficult! We meet once a week for 12 weeks. I passed lab with a 86 but failed lecture and my overall grade was an F! My concern is the excelsior won't enroll me in the program because some programs will turn you away if you have repeated a science more than 1. Some will allow you 2 attempts. Does excelsior have this rule? I have had my transcripts already evaluated and all I needed to take was microbiology and retake the AP 2. Now I'm very discouraged because my choices of LPN to RN programs have narrowed a lot! Does anyone known the requirements for excelsior in regards to this matter?

Not hurt at all. Running with my B! what I teach my high schooler is to try! Try as hard as you possibly can. You fail try again! And again and again! If you got that c and didn't try to your best potential then guess what, I'm going to be extremely ****** and disappointed with you and your C! But if you studied your tail off and tried so hard and got that c, I'm going to be proud of that C! Because she did her very best! Now that's positive constructive criticism.

I tried! Tried and tried until I got my B. Proud of it. Doesn't have to be successful to you or anyone else but me.... Cause i know how hard self study is. I'm still a great PN and and 14 year EMT at the end of it all.
