** I Did It **

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

Whoo Hoo!!! I can't believe it! I passed the last hurdle and am now a nursing student! I start Jan 9.

I left the lab exam tonight almost in tears. I felt for sure that I had failed. I felt that way from almost the start of the test.

Instructor told us to come back in an hour if we wanted to know our results.

That was an hour form h*ll, let me tell you. I started looking up alternate careers online while i was waiting I was so sure that I had bombed the lab exam.

Imagine my shock when I went in, sure to be told I failed the exam and as a result the course. (lecture + lab in one grade)

I made an 81% on the exam. You could have knocked me over with a feather. There was so much I didn't know. Almost 3/4 of the exam was fill in the blank. UGH!!! After my 68% on the lecture final the other day, I just knew it was all over with tonight, I felt worse leaving this lab exam than I did leaving the final.

So.....ended up that I am 1 point short of a B for the course but I'll take that C+ with a huge smile. (I'll probably retake the course in a 6 week summer session to bring up the C for my GPA)

I couldn't stop smiling on the way out of school and I screamed with joy and happiness in the car while driving home.

I DID IT!!!!!!! Yippee!!! I can't believe I pulled it off, coming back from failing at the end of the course. I am so happy and excited!

Thank you all again! I can't tell you how blessed I am by your support, encouragement and prayers.
