Peds math exam - tooting my own horn!

So I had my pediatric math exam this week and normally these exams are my nemesis. I have never been strong in math and my school has the typical 95% (on 20 questions) or retake math policy with one retake allowed. I have gotten a 90% on 2 of the 4 exams I've had but passed on the retakes. I stress more about these exams than about any other aspect of nursing school and then it took 2 days to grade which added to my stress. This exam is notoriously the hardest one and the faculty tends to make errors in writing the exam so the failure rate is generally pretty high but I passed it on the first try!! I'm so proud of myself. It's great to start the semester off on a positive note! :D

They really do need to get their act together! It all went down hill starting with my semester because just before our semester started the course coordinator quit! Since then they have been like Tweedledee and Tweedledum up in there! Good job!

Omg I'm sure that they've been using the same damn exam and practice problems with the partial drops and rounding to the thousandth since then. Now they have Queen Tweedledee and her 2 tweedledums under her. It's terrible! I just have to hang in there. 99 more days. I can do it!

Thanks though! :)

Congrats on your exam! It is very stressful! I got so sick right before my dosage exam for this semester. I practiced a lot but the stress still got to me. But passing is the best feeling. Way to go!

I'm sure they have! You never heard of such problems before my semester :/ That course coordinator quit, the DON quit, everything just seemed to go south! I honestly don't know how I survived 3rd semester being a single mom! The semester before us couldn't believe the stuff we were telling them*L* They were shocked at how things happened to us :/

Geez that's so crazy that they still haven't fixed this in so long. I don't know how you did it!

Honestly, I don't know how either*L*
