Good morning all.:loveya: I find this website to be very helpful and encouraging. I'm trying not to beat myself up about the test I just failed on yesterday. Have you ever gone to take a test, really felt good about it and then when you get the test back, to your dissappointment, you failed? Well this is how I felt on yesterday. In my heart of hearts I knew that I passed this test. I am forever studying and it's not like the test are extremely hard. I don't know whether I'm retaining what I'm learning or what. I'm in my 3rd semester and sometimes I feel like can I really do this. I need to make an 84 on my final in order to pass this class. Since yesterday I've been repeating in my mind over and over again about how did I not pass this test. I believe that being a nurse is a special calling and everyone can't be a nurse. I'm like God, what is going on here! In my heart of hearts I know that I'm a nurse but the struggle sometimes seems to be so hard. Others seem to go through this course with a breeze. They can study the night before and pass. I can't do that. I have to start studying 2 weeks or more before the test. It's just that where it comes easy to others, I'm really struggling to really get the whole concept of everything. Should I be a critical thinker by the 3rd semester or will this come with time? I have one more class to take to get my LPN license and two more semesters to get my RN license. I want this soooo bad and it's like I'm right at the brink and it's slipping away from me. As I type this I'm getting teary eyed:cry: because I really desire to be a nurse not because of the money but because I love people and love to help people. In two weeks I would love to come to this site and give my testimony of how I passed this class. Our finals are in two weeks. Anyone that will and can pray, I solicit your prayers and I thank you so much. God bless you!:loveya:

Sending a prayer your way right now! Where there is a will, there is a way. Just buckle down, and study hard and you can do it! Try to relax and put the failed test behind you because if you keep stressing over it, it will affect your ability to study properly for the next one. Good luck and God bless!!

WOW! Very well put. I will definitely take all the advices that has been given to me. I feel a whole lot better from this morning. Our OB/Peds teachers are going to be sending out a study guide for us to use as a study guide for the final exam. I thank the Lord for that, because they don't have to do this. They state that this will be the material on the final. Again that's alot and I'm going in ALL the way. I have a graduation to prepare for.:loveya: God bless you and again thanks!
