Hi all, I seem to be slowly drowning in my chemistry class. I have a 4 year old at home, work 30 hours a week, am 14 weeks pregnant with #2 and just found out that my father-in-law has cancer. This news has been devastating for my husband and our immediate family. I am so overwhelmed with life and am taking chemistry at night (2 nights per week) and am not doing well. I got a D on my first test and am having a difficult time coming to terms with this. I am a very good student and am used to studying hard and getting A's and B's in my subjects. I already have a BA in human services and graduated with an almost 4.0 gpa. I am not bragging but just trying to hit home how difficult failing is for me right now. I can only imagine trying to take chemistry again with 2 kids will be even harder. I am wondering what I should do. I felt so emotional about the D grade that I received that I felt that perhaps I just needed to give up on my hopes of going to nursing school and becoming a nurse. Perhaps this is a sign that I can't cut it. I work with and know several nurses who all said that chemistry was their worst class and not to worry but I must pass this class with a C. I am having anxiety dreams at night about the chemistry equations and all the material that just doesn't interest me or make much sense. I loved my bio, A&P and am so disappointed in myslef right now. I would love to hear your opinions. Be well....
