Nursing Students General Students

I just failed out of my ADN program for messing up sterile technique on one skill in my practical exam. I am moving in June and won't be able to return to my current school for a second chance. I am otherwise an A student. What can I do? Will any nursing school take my first two semesters as transfer credits?

I would think you would be able to transfer credits. But having a fail on your record might prevent you from getting looked at.

Although I find it hard to wrap my mind around failing for such a simple mistake. I knocked a bottle of NS all over my sterile feild in my exam, acknowledged my mistake and continued on to pass. All students make errors, thats kinda the whole point of going to school.

Oh, I'm fully aware of how absurd it is. For whatever reason my program has this draconian rule.
