I'm somewhat in the same boat as you, except it's my overall GPA that's off by just a tad and it's what's holding me back it seems. Just know you're not alone, but I would also look in to seeing if you can retake the class or there's another English class you can take to replace it maybe? Good luck ❤

Trying to remain positive here but it is hard, especially since my GPA wasn't off by very much at all (it was literally off by 0.03 points) according to the program's criteria. I guess I'm just seeking for advice from anyone who has been so, so close to meeting the qualifications but ran in to a dead end. Did you strengthen your application and reapply to the same program? Or did you look elsewhere? Any tips and encouragement would be helpful. Thanks!

Hello all! First time poster here. I'm not an RN (although that's my ultimate goal) but I've been in a phlebotomy program for a couple months now and have my first training day this week in the hospital. I'm starting to feel a little nervous about it because this will my first time ever stepping in to a hospital doing any sort of a medical procedure. I'm not so much nervous about performing venipunctures since I've been poking my poor classmates all this time, so I know I'm fully capable but I guess I'm just nervous about being in a new environment. Maybe to ease my nerves: what all should I expect in the hospital?
