Afraid of Failure

[madysson]

Hello,

So I am starting a nursing program in May 2016 and I am very nervous.. Nervous of failing. I feel as if I didn't learn as much as I possibly could while taking my pre-reqs. I did not take biology or chemistry in college because I took it as honors in high school so it was not required. I feel as if that could be a set back. I did pretty well on my TEAS test. Still, I am very scared that I will be behind other students on the learning scale. Any advice?

Also, any advice on financial preparation?

Know your not alone.

I start my program in January and I am afraid of failing after having made it to this point. However I think this fear comes from the unknown of what my experience is going to be like. You can read others experiences and all that but everyone's going to experience something different. Good luck on your journey :)

I have been an LPN for 5 years and I am scared ******** about my bridge program!! It's normal, a little bit of fear is good, keeps you on your toes.

Don't think of it as fear, think of it as motivation!
