Dear Mother,
It's good that you're trying to help your daughter, but does she want to attend nursing school? Is there any chance that not passing the entry exam is too much pressure for her?
Not passing the entry exam can indicate future serious challenges in nursing school. Nursing school is difficult and puts a lot of pressure on students, even those without a learning disability.
On the other hand, she may just need test-taking support.
Without knowing the nature or extent of her disability, here's some suggestions.
Remember to involve your daughter in decision-making and ensure that any chosen program aligns with her goals and learning style. Whenever possible, allow her to initiate finding out about accommodations and help.
Best wishes,
Nurse Beth
