Well, you need to calculate your grades to see what you need to make. Sit down with a teacher and figure this out. I was kinda in this same situation, but I made it possible for myself to pass. Let me tell you how I did it. I started studying the test material at least 3 weeks before each test. I did this by reading the assigned topic in the textbook and also studying notes that where given in class. Alot of the nursing school textbooks come with cds that have practice questions from each chapter. After reading your chapter, do does questions for that chapter on the cd. The textbook may also come with a website you can go to that may have additional practice test questions that you can answer. Do the practice questions and if you answer a question wrong, go back and study that material again. After doing all this, maybe you can get with a study group to go over the material and bounce questions off each other. By a week before the test, you should be on a level where you have gone over and learn most of the material. At this point, this last week is used for review and catching anything you may have missed. Just keep going over and over the material. Even if you feel like you know it, go over it some more.

This is how I studied. By using these techniques, I did not make anything less then a 90 on any of the exams. I hope this helps and good luck with the rest of your semester. You can make the grades you wanna make. All it takes is hard work and dedication. God Bless.
