I don' think "they're out to get me", but it's pretty clear that this woman has a problem with me. Apparently, she has a history of picking on one student in each of her clinical groups, and I'm it for some reason. I'm pretty clear on what nursing school is like, thanks. I've been busting my ass in school AND in my surgical internship for the past two years. I may be alot of things, but a paranoid slacker I am not.

I've been having a difficult time with paper work. My clinical group started clinicals on the third day of school, so we haven't had the benefit of learnging what is expected of us this semester (1st semester of 2nd year). I've asked for help regarding my difficulties and she refuses to help me. I just got my midpoint evaluation and she gave me all U's, based on my errors in preclinical paper work (i've improved 300% since clinical started, but apparently that dosen't mean anything), and the fact that i didn't half my risperdal (in pharmacology last semester, we were told NOT to split pills that weren't scored. This pill WAS NOT SCORED so I didn't split it before haviing her check off my meds. She counted this as a med error.) I can't ask her questions because she says I'm unprepared if I do, but I hear other students ask her questions all the time I don't nkow how I'm expected to learn in an environment like this. I feel that she has a personal problem with me, and I've tried to work it out with her 1:1, but she assumes that I'm lazy and incompetent and will have nothing to do with me. I've NEVER recieved bad marks in clinical, so I don't know what else to do! I've begged the dean and my advisor to put me in a different clinical group. I don't want special favors, I just want a fair chance at passing like everone else!

I need advice. I have an evil clinical instructor who is out to fail me. What can I do? i"ve met with my advisors, I've met with the dean. I don't know what to do!
