That you that is really what I needed. Some one who is or was in the same boat as me. And someone who understands. I have looked into some bachelors program. I am looking at Catholic U. I hear they are really good. I do agree some teacher don't care. I feel that is the type that I had. Unfortunately the LPN program require that you start all over again the classes don't transfer over. So I think the bachellors route is the best. I am just so stressed over this. It is not that I don't understand peds the teacher just wanted to be known as a hard teacher. Plus another thing I have experienced is that many teachers don't teach and then give some extremely difficult exams just the boost the program and make it look difficult. Sometimes I think I could have taught myself. I have gotten some good advice here thank you all

I don't think I was responding to Angus. It was someone else. I don't know yet how access this site yet I just get the e-mail that my post was answered. I am not angry. I am just fed up. I was in a program that had alot of intimidating and negative professors and I am just frustrated. I do appreciated the posting and the warning about Exelsior. I do intended to check it out, infact I already called them for the application. My clinical are good. I usually average a B for them. I got a C in one. So I am confident about my success. They just require you to come to NY for a weekend to do a clinical. I hope I get accepted and that I am successful.:roll then I can do this:roll :roll :roll :roll Oh by the way the class was Peds

ok first of all I am not repeatedly failing the same course. Second of all I do study. However I had a teacher who was very unfair. out of 57-60 students 25 failed and we were all close to a 75. I had a 74.3. I met with my instructor many times over the semester discussing my grade. I was actually doing fine until the third exam whcih she loaded with alot of information and asked some very hard questions. Most of the class did poorly, but she refused to help us out. Infact she is probably on this board......, anyway. I really just need help to find other options and whether or not Excelsior is a recognized program. I really didn't need the negative stuff. Most nurses tend to have that kind of attitude. Aparently nursing is some elite profession where only a few are selected. I know people who did not even deserve to graduate that are now RN's so I guess it is the luck of the draw. I guess that is why so many loose their lisense...........Look I don;t mean to be mean, I am just really hurt because I studied so hard. Can anyone give me info. on Excelsior I appreciate what was said before. Is it hard, what approach should I have in studying. Are the test more management or disease process etc

Well The school does have a policy. After two D's you cannot return. Most associate degree programs have that policy. My only other options is to transfer into a bachelors degree program. Which will take so long. I did speak to my instructor who suggested Excelsior Colleg e in Albany does anyone know anything about it

I want to know what can be done if you have failed a nursing class twice in a two year associate degree program. Is it just over for me or is there hope
