Bad semester...

0Hi all,

It's the the end of the semester and I'm very upset. I didn't do as well as I thought I would and now I'm afraid I won't get a job. I'm a pre nursing student at NYU. This was my first semester because I transferred from a community college. It was a very difficult transition especially when it came to the curriculum. I took 3 classes which are Spanish, chemistry, and philosophy. I have received C's in all three classes. I feel so disappointed in myself and hopeless. I don't know what to think or say at this point. I feel like my best isn't good enough.

Please give me me your thoughts. Thank you.

    Why wouldn't you be able to get a job?

    Unless you state your gpa on a résumé, no employer will know nor care about it. All that matters is that you finished an accredited nursing program and passed your state boards.

    It's not uncommon that students have a hard time acclimating to a college workload in the first semester. Just remember, pre-requisite courses are different than nursing courses. Many of my former classmates found nursing courses easier than the required STEM courses.

    If you need help with your courses, don't be afraid to seek out tutoring or assistance from classmates!

    I'm sorry you had a tough semester. Is there a way you could retake those classes? Unfortunately, I don't think C's will fly so well at NYU for your pre-reqs.
