I failed management clinical

[geishagirl]

I just found out I failed management clinical. I am waiting to find out if I need to repeat the whole quarter in the fall or if I may be able to join the next management clinical group (starting next week). This is my last quarter and I already have a job lined up, and I am so upset right now. This is a 2-week clinical course, and supervise 1st quarter students NACs at SNF. If I received feedback in the first week I could've done better, but I didn't know until the final evaluation I was doing so bad. They said I took a passive role, didn't take the leadership. Although I know it is true it was my responsibility to find out how I was doing every day from the clinical instructor, isn't is the instructor's responsibility to give me an immediate feedback if she sees the behavior htat needs change, too? I don't want to fall apart and sink. I want to graduate! I am crossing my fingers and waiting for my instructor's call regarding the final decisions right now....

It is not uncommon for people to be in the dark about not meeting standards. It is a reflection of the instructor, not the student. Next time, make certain you ask the instructor on a regular basis for feedback and document this. You don't want to get blindsided a second time. Good luck.
