Failed my first nursing class

[Jamjams]

Well apparently I ended up failing my 1st nursing class of my whole nursing program and in a weird way I don't feel down, I don't feel sad, I honestly don't feel angry either because somehow someway I feel as thou I really needed to step my game up (all though I really did try so hard) but instead try harder than I have it my first time and I'm okay with having to retake the class because I want to learn as much as I can. I felt like the first time I was learning to just learn and not learning to actually know. Next quarter is going to be a little bit difficult but I thought about what I can do different and how to be better prepared. Hope you all are doing good btw xoxo

I feel lazy about retyping it, so here are my recent suggestions about how to study for exams.

Nursing school is hard! You can do it though. Your study techniques will probably need to change/step it up a lot from what they were in general courses. That doesn't mean it's impossible though - it just means that you need to do everything you can to support the type of learning you do best. And if you are not doing well - talk to the faculty! Do whatever you can to get some extra help. A lot of people pass it up, but teachers are there to help you learn. I wish I had gone to my faculty advisor more, but she was a great resource for anything I needed. Especially in the last semester. Hang in there, and keep your head up from here. I hope next semester is much better for you =)

Thank you that was really helpful and I will most certainly use the faculty to my advantage next time :) and the tips you gave are very helpful

I did as well, & it sucks. Half of my class failed. I never thought that I would fail but I did. Next semester I will do better.
