Too Many classes...failing out
So I really messed up. I thought if I could push myself I could do two classes at once with my job. Well the new job is extremely demanding more so then i could have imagined and I am now failing out of my BIO class. I tried to study all weekend but i havent had Bio in 7 years Im learnign from scratch and I just cant seem to keep up. Nothing seems to be sinking in. Im taking Alg2 as well. I just found out i cant drop anything now without paying in full. I didnt take a grant..expecting to get a C so my employer would pay. Well now it looks like I will owe 800 for this term Because I am flunking out. I am completely stressed. There is just not enough time in my day to study. And when there is Im so tired from my busy schedule..jeez I wish i would have been smarter about this. The worst part is He does NOT teach the class he just hands out notes and expects us to read over and learn and be ready for the test. I understand that to a point. BUT I didnt pay 800 to teach myself? ~~~frustrated

What are your core classes?
I looked up my college's pre reqs. It seemed I only need Alg2 and Bio/Chem to start the program. After that its all part of the Nursing Degree. What confuses me is I just got off the phone with a friend who said I need alot of core classes that its not just those. But on the website it says nothing about other courses needed? I think She was confused? Which happens ha. She hasnt started her program as well. This isnt something like I need History, geo and all those other bogus classes correct? My community college is http://www.racc.edu. If you go to the health divison and click on it. The side will show pre reqs. Its Reading Area Community College in PA. IF you cant get into the link. Im alittle lost right now. Thanks guys

HLP! B student starting from scratch..Should I?
Hello Everyone! Im 24 and have worked in Sales up till this point. I have a few family members who have become nurses. They tried to get me to follow suit years ago. But my grades were horrible in High School. And I just didnt feel "smart enough." I started Community College last Spring. I was orignally going to get my BA in Business. But to be completely honest 9-5 does not suit me. I hate sitting at a desk all day long. I rather do labor work! I feel almost too old now for this career path. But if i push myself I know I can finish my school's two year program on time. I always felt the top of the class did this type of work. And I would never be able to pull through. What I have noticed is College is much different then High School. I some how have averaged all A's and one B so far. I need to take my pre req classes before I can go on the waiting list. I believe its open enrollment. So they dont pick and choose here. I heard of people failing a class and getting kicked out is this true? That scares me. I was thinking of taking a mixture of online courses as well to finish as soon as possible. Anyone else in my boat? How are you doing so far? I had a life changing event about a year ago that really changed my perspective. Although nursing wasnt for me before. I now would love to help and take care of people. I actually feel it would be theraputic for me. I guess everyone on here will become my mentor now ha. Thanks for hearing me out :) Alexis
