everybody failed the test

[crazyts]

Well here we go. Fourth week into classes - 5th test in A & P and everyone but one girl failed the test.. I was not that one girl..haha Funny thing is that last week even the teacher was amazed that everyone was doing so well in the class and no one was failing. So today we get a different format of test with aprox 30 extra questions. And practically the whole class failed. I mean really??? The teacher doesnt really teach, she reads out of the book.. I can read the book myself. Is it normal for a teacher to just read out of the book and not give examples??? I seriously think if the teacher had of taken the test she would have failed... ok I'm done venting now..... Better study for the next test...... haha

Our school consisted of old geezers who read off a book, whos favorite phrase was "back in my day," whos nursing experience consisted of tending soldiers from world war 2, and the list goes on.

Every test I had, half class failed. In the end it drove the entire class to study on their own.

We fought against the teachers, petitioned to get the teacher out, argued with the dean (well the class president did), and in the end we were fighting a losing battle.

None of the materials came from the book, none from the powerpoints, it all was coming from a testbank from another publisher. Even the values for the labs were way off, even compared to the typical NCLEX values.

If one thing I learned, everything is now self study. I lost my faith in teachers in america, and in st francis career college.

I hope your situation doesnt turn out to be like my school did.
