I found out my average is a 79.99 for Medical-Surgical.
I tried so hard, so very hard but I suppose I didn't try hard enough.
I suppose I may have not studied or learned or answered the one more question.
That one more question to earn me that one more point to earn me that B letter grade.
My first semester of nursing school was a MESS. I was taking 2 other classes on top of nursing classes and everything that goes on in my life.
I ended up with ...
B - Foundations
C- Intermediate skills
C- Health Assessment
A- Theater
B- Psychology Growth and Development
A- Intro to clinical
Now for this second semester I have yet another C ... and I feel so disappointed with myself. Especially because after the exam I'll say to myself "Oh, now why on earth did I say the answer was that ... dang I got another wrong!".
Other reasons is because I feel like any dreams of pursuing a graduate degree are out the window.
Is it too late to rectify my ways? What I may be doing wrong?
I still have all of PHRM left. I still have MSII left. I still have MSIII left. I still have PEDS. I still have OB. I still have PSYCH. I still have MNGMT.
Is there still time in the game to get those A's or B's?
It's like everything about how to study in nursing finally clicks NOW ...

I am not sure I understand ...you passed but just made it. Ok no matter how you look at it you passed. The bottom line is you need to pass. When you sit for your boards it is only those that past school. It doesn't mean that you shouldn't try harder but put this semester behind you and develop a plan for next semester. Good luck!
