Ok here my story --- I was in a bachelors degree program from 2003-2005 and ended up not making it. So, decided wasn't going to give up and went to an associates degree in nursing. Well, in my second semester with 3 wks left and get told dismissed for academic dishonesty. I have never cheated in my life and study so hard. this is what happened Need advise Please ~ Ok had a really bad morning and ended up was rushing around and grabbed my notes and some practice question cause I thought I would make it to some part of the class and be able to review a lil. Unfortunately, never made it to class and with rushing forgot to take my med for ADHD/Anxiety. Ended up going right to the teachers building cause that is where i take my exams due to accomadation for disability. Knocked on my professors do and no one answered so wait for about 10 -15min. and then took walk upstairs saw 2 other students taking the exam asked them where professor was one answered downstairs so went back down knocked on door and still no answer. Went back up to the 2 students and asked again the other student said oh its not our regular professor giving it is this person. So, rushed to the 3rd floor of the building to her office. Professor was like here for exam I said yes, dropped my bag off and rushed back down stairs to get exam and start. Now realize haven't taken meds and have 3 panic attacks. I am trying to answer exam questions and reach into my poccket and pull out a tissue and some papers put the papers on the table face down and blew my nose and cont. on Well, to finish up the story ended up professor came and and said I was dishonest but honestly I wasn't I totally don't function when I don't take my meds and wasn't looking at the paper at all totally just wasn't functioning and didn't even realize it was practice questions. So, ended up getting dismissed my program. I talked to director of program and advisor and both say can appeal but won't get back in. I so want to be a nurse and this professor never actually saw me using those papers so its speculation and I wansn't using them. What are my chances of getting back in? Was considering getting lawyer for appeal cause Im getting no where and maybe the schoo would react different to a lawyer what do u think please give advise I so need it. Been so down about this. Oh and to make matters worse had a 96 average in the class. But the school could care less at least thats the impression im getting. Help?????
