Frustrated student

:idea:Hello from California,

Any California students out there? I am currrently in the tail end of my 3rd semster & have to retake the med-surg portion of a 16 week semester ( 8 weeks med surg & 8 weeks of peds/ob) unforutnately I tested poorly for the first 2 tests (instructor expected us to maintain 75% at all times). I was allowed ro take the 8 weeks of peds/ ob & passed, but now have to wait & retake the med-surg portion in the spring of 08' due to the fall i salready filled with other students trying to re-enter. I also have to take another algebra class to meet graduation requirements for the school I attend. This means I will not see the 4th semester & graduation until Fall of 08'! that is so far off & I don't want o lose any of the stuff I have learned.....i thought I would challenge the Boards for LPN/LVN until I am ready for 4th semseter...or better yet, just stay an LPN until the very end of school & I have passed RN boards....How does this sound? any other stuednts that have suffered this? I am starting to feel like I will never get thru school.....Need some positive help!

Thank you, P

Although I'm not having the same experience, I have heard of students who where in the RN program challenging the Board for LVN license and went into the work force. I think it sounds like a good idea.. you won't lose what you have learned and will be getting hands on experience in the process. It would be very frustrating to have come this far and lose ground. I say GO FOR IT! If you have to wait for the next semester, use the time to your benefit. Best of luck.
