I have taken Basic Nursing Practicum in the Fall 2013 semester and failed the first two tests. So I decided to drop the class and enrolled in the Spring 2014 semester. I am currently in the class and have failed the first two tests again! Both tests were over nine chapters and I have a week to study each test. I have done everything to change my study habits: I record the lectures, highlight my textbook, read the powerpoints, write notes for key points, watch YouTube videos on my topic, study three hours a day in the library, and do nclex questions from books in the library. I just don't know what my problem is, I think its very hard for me to transition from a knowledge based thinker to a critical thinker. I have my third test tomorrow and if I failed it I am going to drop the class again because their is no coming back after failing three tests. My question is what should I do? Should I retake the class at my current school or enroll in another program? I have already taken and passed Health Assessment and Nutrition and am taking Hospital Measurements now. I need some advice bad, is their anyone here who is in this situation?
