ok, so I am a nursing student and I was taking Pharmacology and Fundamentals and I passed Pharmacology with a 86% but failed fundamentals wit 74.76%. Our passing grade is 75% and I was so close :( It just hurts me every time thinking about my failure. Now I have to wait until August to retake fundamentals. In my school we are only allowed 2 failures. Nursing is my passion and I want to be nurse and I know I will be a great nurse in the future, but i am so scared :( I NEED HELP. HAS ANYONE BEEN IN MY SITUATION?

Many, many, many, many people have been in in your situation. The smart ones learn from this experience that nursing school is a lot harder than they expected. They plan to work a lot harder on their classes when (if) they get a second chance.

They also learn that in nursing school the semesters get harder as they go along, since they have to retain and have a good working knowledge of everything they learned before because they will be held accountable for using and building on it.

Good luck!

yes I agree with you! i am just trying to be positive because the fact that i was so close proves me that I can do this. I know classes get harder but in a way I am glad I have to retake fund. I just know one thing that we should never give up. When i found out my grade i had a panic attack :( but I realized that this failure wont stop me from what I want. If I fail one more class I will go to another school. I'll try not to of course :)

If you fail one more class another school may not admit you. Do not count on that as a fall-back plan.
