Thanks for all the suggestions. I really do appreciate the help to all of you.

I am a 40 yr old, divorced, mom of 3. I have been a student at a community college since 05 trying to raise kids and waited for rn program for 3 yrs. I used to have 3.9-4.0 GPA. Member of Phi Theta Kappa. All this doesn't matter though. I was fortunate and excited to get into RN program. My brother was murdered over a yr ago around finals. I missed passing with a C by 7 questions. I had to wait to get back in. Again, excited to be allowed the opportunity to stick with it. I missed it by 3 questions this time. UGH. I like so many others worked soooo hard. I haven't worked for 6 yrs because of schooling either. Now, I am more nervous than ever and obviously depressed and confused. I have 103 credits. And nothing to show for it. I need advise on how to make it all worth it. I can't do RN program at my school or some others. Not if you UNSUCCESSFULLY attempt to pass RN program twice. Most of my credits are NURSING. What can I do with my training? I still get full pell grant, scholarships and 37000 left to borrow in student loans. I know I can do ANYTHING, but don't know what my path should be now. I've never failed before, and now this is twice. More poor kids are sad too. Mommy was supposed to graduate a yr ago or at least this May. We will all be fine. I just need great advice in my options so I can make a decision and find the right school and career options. It still looks like a minimum of 3 yrs for college no matter what I do. I'm tired and frustrated from chasing my dream (TAIL). Please help.
