Patho

[kana581]

So I am pretty sure I am going to fail my patho class with a D, I have already signed up for it again next semester but it will be my last shot at it. I got a rejection letter from nursing school and well it sucked the life out of me. If I fail my Patho class next semester I will not be able to apply to my schools Nursing Program at all and will have to go to another school.

Please can someone help me with some advice to pass Patho. I re-listen to the lecture, rewrite my notes, read through them and even look up stuff online to help me understand it better. I even talked to my professor and he told me he didn't know what else I could do. I do well in all my other classes but my sciences classes I tend to blank out on the test.

I am 21 years old and have been a full time student for 2.5 years already if I don't get into nursing school I have no idea in what I am going to do.

How are your test taking skills? Sometimes even when you know the material you can still mess up on the tests. Test taking is a skill, and skills require practice. Find practice questions wherever you can, usually the required textbook offers a website where you can find practice questions. Also, you can try to anticipate possible test questions and make them up yourself or with classmates. Do you have a learning assistance program that can go over your exam with you?
