I failed my adult health test can I appeal

[2bnurse 1983]

This is my first topic I had an average test as 76.9 the passing grade is 78 before going to HESi test (final test). I needed an 84 to pass but there was a delay to get my computer ready. I do have accommodation already because of my test anxiety. I could not start until 45 minutes of the starting time, even though I got extended time but I was so anxious before taking the exam because of this delay and try many times. Now I failed my exam I got 72 can I do appealing and ask the dean to look at this problem and please is there anyone can help me to write a good letter for me since the English is not my first languge. I feel my dreams of being a nurse just ending because of this

Thanks

Don't let your dreams dissolve. Go appeal and make noise. These crooked Professors and schools need to be held accountable. Don't listen to the negative paid and affiliated people. Go and appeal and win. Much of luck. Go as far as needs to be. Contact the accreditation organization and demand an investigation. You paid for this class, your the customer and customer is King.

Wow, you've really got a bee in your bonnet about this issue, don't you? What bad experience did you have in nursing school that has gotten you so fired up?

You seem to have nursing school confused with a fast food restaurant.

OP, don't take this poster's advice. It is by far, the WORST advice I've ever heard, hands down. Nursing school is NOT McDonald's, you can't have it your way. But even in the customer service industry, the customer isn't ALWAYS right. The customer is NOT king. You can contact the accrediting agency but nothing will happen. You can appeal but that doesn't mean your appeal will go through.

As far as this troll, I can tell you that this person probably failed out of a nursing program & refuses to take accountability for it. Don't be like this person. Be an adult & take responsibility for the fact that YOU failed. Not the nursing program, not the school, not the computer, not the instructor ... YOU!

From another thread: "You pay a school to provide you with a chance -- to present the material, provide some coaching, and evaluate your level of performance. You don't pay them to guarantee your success no matter how little effort you put into it."

Wise words- you should heed them.

My first impulse was to laugh when I read this; I thought it was a joke.

What a sense of entitlement... and such horrific advice.
