Failed last semester-first test!!!!!!

[healinghands201]

Hello All.....

I am in my last semester for my RN, and just took my first test. 75% is passing where I attend, and OMG.........I got a 64% HELP, I just don't think I can pull myself out of this hole. Out of 48 students, I only know of 3 that passed. Our instructors already stated-no curve- no extra credit-no exceptions. Majority of the class received either a 72 or 74, I just don't know how to get through. We are now getting ready to learn about rhythm strips and the electrical part of cardiac, does anyone know of good sites to learn? I just don't like how my book explains it. Is anyone else out there in my situation?
