Next steps

[UNC4me]

I just finished my last final for my senior year in a 4 year nursing school I think I made a C, which combined with a C from another class last year means I effectively flunked out. At this school there is no avenue to get readmitted after 2 Cs. I should be taking my NCLEX next month but instead will be struggling to decide what's next. Has anyone else had this issue? What do I pursue now? Try to get in another school? Look at some other career entirely? I'm lost.......

Try to appeal and retake the class.

Your school seems kind of strict. I know nursing students who make straight C's and graduate...just as long as that C remains at or above the minimum passing percentage. But anyway, if nursing is what you truly want to do then why question giving it another try? If their policy is to kick out students who receive two or more C's, then try looking at other schools. Learn from this experience and don't give up.

I know a couple of schools that keep the 10 point grading scale, but require an 80% to pass the nursing courses. C's are under 80% so they are failing.
