Specializes in Med/Surg/Tele.

It's ok, I was bummed, but it's ok! I'm really fine! I think I needed to go into panic mode, just so I know how to snap out of panic mode in the future.

I'm only on campus one day a week which is a lot different from 1st and 2nd semester! 1st semester FLEW BY for me and then 2nd semester seemed to drag a little bit and now 3rd semester is FLYING BY which probably means 4th semester will really drag because we'll be soooo close yet soooo far LOL.

Yang....I know how you feel. I failed too - my #'s were too far off from hers on apical and radial pulses. I was SO nervous. I am seriously considering changing my major. Today is not the 1st time I have had this feeling - that's what scares me. :scrying: We have lecture test #1 tomorrow and I can't even concentrate enough to study! I will see how test #1 goes and then probably talk to Al T @ ECC.

I'm sorry Amy :( I do believe you should always listen to your heart and what your intuitions are. If you are second-guessing yourself because you didn't pass this check off or are afraid you're not going to pass the semester then that's a different story because you may need to change your study techniques or take some medication for your anxiety or find some solution to everything. But if you are second guessing yourself because you feel that this is something you're just not truly interested in then you should consult with Al. You have had a rough year also which might contribute to some of what's going on. We're all here for you and want you to stay but if it's something you really aren't in to then you'll eventually leave. I hope you make a decision that truly makes you happy and no matter what decision you make- we're here to back you up.

Do you think this semester is flying by? I think it's draaaaaging! Maybe it's because I'm so exhausted :)

Well, you're trying to juggle a new husband, and a baby on the way. That would make any amount of time seem to fly, hehe :D

What week are we starting now....Week 4?

We're almost finished with 1/4 of the semester! haha

1st semester seemed to go really fast, especially when week 7-8 finally got there! The whole 8 weeks you want to hurry up and get to clinicals. Then the time comes and you think, "OH CRAP! I'M NOT READY TO START CLINCALS YET!" :clown:
