Would it be wise enough of me to retry the program in the future?

Hello, I am looking for advice. I was in my first semester of nursing at Vanier College in Montreal. I unfortunately failed clinical, which was one of the school's policies in order to advance to next semester. I experienced major anxiety issues during clinical. I don't know what reason specifically. There were probably many reasons, such as my teacher scares me, I am always to mess up and it was the stage fright version of nursing. I always messed up BP and forgot a lot of things, such as notifying my RN and LPN of my vital signs among other things. In other words, I wasn't as confident in clinical. I tried to deal with my anxiety issues but failed to actually seek out help from someone. I believe had I gotten another teacher, I would have done so much better. I know I was capable of doing better had it not been for my anxiety. Had I passed, I would have done so much better next semester because I know I am capable of more. I spoke with my teacher. She said that the marks were up and it was a committee of nursing teachers, along with her, that decided that I should not pass due to my issues. She mentioned getting a mark update request or repeal my grade. I don't know how convincing I can be to show that I should pass. I am now looking at my other options. I don't know where to go from here. I have had my eyes set on nursing since high school and my dreams just shattered. I'm looking for any advice, help or previous experiences from current and former nursing students and current RNs. Thank you. Just a note: becaude I failed clinical, I am out of the program. The only way to get back in is by reapplying, but academic advisor told me my odds don't exist to be readmitted.

Hello there, I am a Vanier student. I graduated high school last year and I applied to Vanier and Dawson for nursing and was refused for both because my prerequisite grades were low. I plan on redoing my chemistry next semester (which was the main issue with both schools; Vanier said that all of my prerequisites were low) to improve my grades and possibly excel during my two semesters of college in social science (as well as taking psychology and biology courses). I was just curious to know answers to these questions: 1) Which English cegep is best for nursing studies? 2) If anybody knows, what exactly do Vanier and Dawson admissions put emphasis on for nursing?
