I am sooo sick right now and I had to take a nursing reasearch test last night after a long day of clinical and I did not do my best. I got a 70% and I am soooo mad. I changed like 4 of my answers that I had right at first. WHY DO I ALWAYS DO THAT! I ALWYAS TELL MYSELF DONT CHANGE YOUR ANWERS AND I ALWAYS DO! I think too much into questions sometimes:( Why do I do this!

And I hate that class. I understand it and I did very well on my paper, but the tests are so boring and difficult in my opinion for a novice level in Nursing reasearch. I like research itself and think it's important, but the terms and theories, qualitative and quant, t-tests, chi squared, correlation coefficients, etc.....Does anyone else here feel me?

SO sad over here and I feel really stupid right now! I am usually a good student but these tests make me feel really stupid:(

Hey--it's over now. Nothing you can do about it. I sometimes get mad at myself over answering questions right, then changing my mind and getting it wrong. But the bottom line is, if you REALLY knew the answer, you wouldn't have changed your mind, right?? This usually gets to me for about 10-20 minutes, then I forget about it. In the grand scheme of things, a 70% on one test is not a big deal.

Go out and buy yourself an ice cream cone, go for a walk or a run, or head to the nearest pub and drink yourself silly with some good friends. It's FRIDAY!!!!! woo-hoo

You did your best.......live & learn, but don't beat yourself up over it. :)
