For those that have failed a class

[cinja]

Has this ever happened to you if you have to repeat a class?

1. Make you sit out an entire year before being allowed to take class again.

2. What did you do for that year? Can you work at the hospital still as an intern?

Just a few questions I would like some feedback on. I am appealing the grade so it may not come to this but I like to know my options.

I know that people that failed classes in my school, had to wait to get back in...we were night and weekend..so you waited a full year, for the daytime students they had to go back on the waiting list!! I am not sure about working as an intern if you are technically not a student any more...Good Luck!

At our school you are never guaranteed a spot in the future if you fail a nursing class. Good luck to you for your appeal.

In our school, we do have to wait for another year. If we fail in the 2nd semester, we had to wait for the next 2nd semester because the program was that structured.

I had that same problem before and I opt to spend my time wisely by taking a job as a tech in a hospital and continue finishing the target of 3,000 NCLEX questions through my Saunder's comprehensive review books. I would also try to go back on all the topics covered the past semester and also master diagnostics (saunder's). I had that all planned out before. I can't let my interest fade just because of the long waiting time. I have done much already. I would not give up then. Prayers works wonders, too. It worked for me.

Our school does not guarantee a spot if you fail, and only can re-enroll if a spot opens up.

My advice, don't fail a class. :)
