Feeling Discouraged

Published

Hello. I'm new to this forum, and a friend of mine recommended that I check this site out. I'm currently taking my pre reqs and I plan on applying to my program of choice this fall. I know that in my heart I want to be a nurse. But i seem to have a problem with staying focused when it comes to completing my work and studying for my exams. Trust me I know that this is not a good habit for someone who aspires to be a nurse. I'm not exactly sure what it is that distracts me, or why sometimes I just lose faith in myself. I'm in microbiology right now, and i feel so behind. I feel like everyone in my class knows what's going on but me. and my instructor is no help. If anything she makes me feel like I don't have what it takes to become a nurse. I know I need to get it together. I just need some encouragement and advice.

Specializes in Pediatrics, Emergency, Trauma.
I wonder if maybe they thought they were responding on a different thread????

I was thinking the same thing...

Better to stumble in the beginning. If you ace all tests until third from the end and get a D, and remaining tests are not as worth much points, you will have much pressure.

Get a high B or low A on next test, your score will move up and you will see you have plenty of time to work towards an A.

Good Luck and don't stress out this early.

I must have been responding to wrong thread also. Thought you failed first test.

Saw another thread with same title I read, and didn't read op message again on this thread as carefully.
