I don't know if I'm going to pass Pharmacology?

Hi guys. I'm so bummed right now! We have 4 weeks left in the Semester and I'm struggling so hard with Pharmacology. Our exams are worth 12.5% of our grade, and we took Test 3 today. My first test I got a 65%, second test I got a 61%, and I just got a 74% on Test 3. I'm so happy I went up by 10%+ but is that really gonna cut it to pass? We got our midterm grades last Wednesday July 9th and we only completed 32% of the coursework with my current grade is 69.81% (doesn't include Test 3 grade as we just took that today)! Ahhhhh! My school's curriculum requires a 76% or higher as the final grade to pass. We have one more test to take (another 12.5%), a Presentation (5%) and our Final Exam (30%), and a Post-Test (5%). I also believe we have two more classwork assignments but they're also worth only (5%).

Does anyone know if my grade went up from my Test 3 score? If so, by how much? I'm not sure how to calculate my current grade. I feel like because our final exam is worth so much, if I can pull off a fantastic grade, do I still have a chance to get a 76% or higher in the class as my final grade? I'm getting the whole blues of I'm not good enough for nursing school. I don't know guys. I love nursing, and this is something I want to do for the rest of my life.

OK, don't fret! You are just gonna have to work hard. Of I did my math correctly and you said each test is worth 12.5 a PIECE? You would need an 85 on your last test (test 4), an 87 on your final, and a 90% on your post test, homework, and presentation. This would give you a 76.35 total. But, I would ask your professor to determine this as well.
