I need help in passing fundamentals!!! I'm in a bind and I only have 2 tests left to bring my grade up!! I'm not sure why it is so hard for me. It's the questions and the content I'm just not getting it. I also need motivation people are so discouraging telling me to quit nursing and school all together. I also want encouragement for my own mind or it is all over the place I don't know what to do!!!

Have you joined a study group? Sought out a tutor? Visited your instructor during office hours for additional help? Evaluated your study methods for appropriateness to your learning style? Students have many resources available to help them, but they must go seek them out.

Here are some self-study modules on nursing fundamentals. Perhaps these modules have presented the material in a way you can actually understand.

It's little late to be discovering this, but see if you can locate your instructor's office and make an appointment to TALK ABOUT THE COURSE MATERIAL AND WHERE YOU'RE HAVING PROBLEMS.
Sorry to shout. Your faculty is there to help you but this is not high school and they will not come to you if you're in trouble. You go to them. Do it often. They want to see you.
