Should I leave this racist town?
The fact that the part you find to be the worst, is that people have Confederate flags on their trucks, leads me to believe that you understand that terms such as "slave driver" are generally not racist in the least. As a matter of fact, I feel its a little racist that you find that term troublesome because it came out of a Caucasian persons mouth.. I get told all the time I can use the "male card" can that be taken as sexist? Of course.. As a matter of fact, ive even been told by a coworker "of color" as you put it, that since im white i get the benefit in my job..can that be taken as racism, heck yeah.. Do I care about either? not in the least. Im using as example and personal experience, not comparison, because if I was offended, heck yes I'd leave. So while I do believe that there may be racial slurs happening, I sincerely doubt people are purposely being disrespectful to you due to the color of your skin, if they were and you had any sense of pride at all, you wouldn't even have to ask the question...you'd be out in a heart beat. However I will say, regardless of circumstances, I am very sorry you feel so troubled at your workplace. If you're not comfortable there, then yes, I'd say you should leave.

Failed Anatomy
Did you have the same instructor both times? Was it in classroom, or online? Maybe a different teacher or format would help. Don't listen to OP.. Waiting 5 years to retake a course as if that will help anything is ridiculous.. Try a different school and try a little harder, if not then, there are other jobs in healthcare that don't require a&p..

Hesi A2 entrance exam jitters
You'll do great!! I've never even taken A&P, Math, or any college class outside of my EMT program for that matter, and I scored 72% on it yesterday (I know, not "great" lol) but if you have all the prereqs & are fresh on the basics from high school I would imagine your score to be much, much higher than mine, so don't stress it! Good luck! :)

WKU ADN program Fall 2015
I wish someone had answered this! Lol, I'm also wondering how flexible they were with others, my GPA is right at 2.75 (all it took is one bad semester in paramedic school) I just took the HESI this morning and my score sucked on that also.. 73%. But with middle school math being highest reached and a one chapter crash course on a&p in medic, I'm not too unhappy. Enrolling in a&p and algebra now hopefully that'll help. Anyway, did you ever make it in? How is it so far? í ½í¸Š
