well done! thank you!

First and Last time I will ever use a forum. I received only one truly objective and useful response. Miranda you are not even qualified to answer my question. I asked for advice from nurse preceptors. You haven't even started a nursing program. you are all making assumptions about my situation, and my personality and ability to accept criticsm. I was not given criticism. I was not given any formal documents about reason of my failure. I was given numbers on a sheet that indicate passing or failing. You don't know enough to make a judgement.. I appreciate all the responses and attention you guys have shown me. I will consult a a professional nursing advisor for the best answers.

Yes, exactly. That would be the case because you have to make assumptions to judge any other aspect of the situation. I am not interested in Trolls.

if you fully read my post at all you would have noticed I clearly indicated that I am not going to a school that prepares me to be solid nurse. All that advice is useless to me. My school won't fail me again or they are screwed. However preceptor outside the school might fail me bc we aren't prepared. You are making assumptions which is useless to me. If you cannot be positive and answer the questions at hand you shouldn't respond. idk what world you live in where you think a student has the cash flow to just pick up and attend another school and lose credits and repeat courses.

I will not admit fault to something that is not my fault. I realize that petty people cannot remain objective such is the characters of the majority of instructors at my school which is why I am a bit concerned. However either way they were screwing with me at least by filing charges I am letting them know I am not one to be screwed with. I will fight for myself. I am not going to be failed again by a school instructor when I out perform most of the students in class and in clinical (not hard. this is not good school). That is not my concern. Notice how I asked for advice to improve since my school doesn't adequately prepare us. Also notice how I am concerned about working with my preceptor outside of my school not somebody within the school.

I appreciate your response however I did not ask anyone to judge the situation here. You are making assumptions. I would appreciate constructive responses that answer my questions not comment on the background information. I don't know anything about your situation but if you would have been long gone it seems that you could afford take a loss of nursing credits and pay additional tuition. This is not an option for me.

More information won't help anyone to understand. I just want my question answered.

It does protect you from retaliation :)

That is awfully negative. On what grounds did I screw myself? If the school retaliates and I can prove retaliation by the school they are screwed.

Thank you for the responses. I would prefer not to reveal too much about my situation that would reveal my identity.

Hello everyone, I go to a small school and I recently failed a clinical class. I currently have two more semesters (6 more classes) left to take. I am also worried i will fail my preceptorship in the last semester because of school doesn't adequately prepare students and i have no additional health care experience. Does anyone know of a student who has failed on course but completed the nursing program? Are there any preceptors out there that can give me advice? Have any instructors ever failed a student in clinical, if so on what grounds? I am hoping to gain a sense of hope by writing to all of you. Thank You!
