Failed Block 2

U.S.A. Arizona

Published

Hello fellow nursing students and nurses!

I WAS part of the CEP program with NAU/EMCC this Spring '16 semester. However I failed the block. Actually 8 of us did total. Crazy, right? I couldn't believe how many of us did not succeed. Well we were told we needed to contact the other Maricopa CC's to request a seat into the upcoming Fall semester. Now after two weeks we are all waiting on only 3 of the 7 colleges to respond. The rest are full. How likely is it for a readmit/CEP student to get back in for the next semester? I'm afraid with my terrible hesi score and proctored points from this semester I won't have a fighting chance against others (we were told they base entrance off these two things for readmission). I'm worried I may have to go through the entire process again (if two semesters pass and we haven't been accepted we have to start the entire process over-wait list, acceptance and start at block one). Any thoughts, ideas? I'm going mad refreshing my mailbox every 15 minutes waiting for an acceptance email. Thank you all in advance!

Hey there. I just wanted to tell you I'm sorry and that you're not alone. I'm going into Block 4 this fall at MCC in the NAU/MCC CEP (old curriculum). We started with 62 students and have maintained that as they replace the spots each block with those who fail. We had 8 fail Block 1, 10 fail Block 2, and somewhere around 4 fail Block 3. Only 1 failed Block 4 last semester. From everyone I've ever talked to, Block 2 really seems to be the hardest block for most people. It kicked my butt HARD. Some days I still don't know how I survived it.

Have you figured out where you are going yet? I wish you luck and the best!

Hey Azmama86! I am so sorry to hear that! It was tough for me, that for sure! I have been accepted to attend MCC! The nursing director was so kind and generous to ask everyone who requested a seat to write her a letter to tell her more about ourselves and what we would do differently to pass the second time around. She was the only school that took the time out to get to know us. So what are you doing now? Are you taking block 4 this summer?

I'm so sorry - I just now saw this! I'm so glad you were accepted! That's wonderful news! If you are AM, the instructor is amazing! I love her and could not have passed Block 2 without her! They don't offer the blocks during the summer at MCC (although they are currently doing a summer Block 3 for the students who failed due to our block being the last for the old curriculum) so I am just in NAU classes over the summer. I start Block 4 in August along with my last two NAU classes! What are you doing for the summer? I would study everything you can as much as you can stand it! Do lots of NCLEX questions too! :)
