Question & Concern

My Unit Exams are 60% :

1. (12% of total grade) 52 ques. Your Result ____________ X .12

2. (11% of total grade) 50 ques. Your Result ____________ X .11

3 (17% of total grade) 64 ques. Your Result ____________ X .17

4. (15% of total grade) 62 ques. Your Result ____________ X .15

5. (5% of total grade) Capstone Your Result X.05

Can someone please help me figure this out. For my nursing program we need a C+ to pass the course. I butchered my first exam ( extremely bad ) like 48% What would I need to get on the other exams to pass the course or is all hope lost ? Keep in mind that we don't have a final but " capstone " makes the final.

    A really good tutor who will assist you in focusing on learning information that will be necessary in order for you to score highly on the other exams.

    Moved to Nursing Students forum. 

    My advice to improve your grade would be not to focus on what grades you need on your upcoming exams but why you performed the way you did on the first exam. Did you not understand the information? A tutor can help. Test anxiety? Practice that type of question. And so on.

    Does your program have review sessions before an exam? If so, go. If not, see if they can start doing that. Do they have test review sessions after the exam? Same thing-- if yes, don't miss it; if no, see if you can get them to institute them.

    Have you asked the faculty who gave the exam to sit to discuss your test and where you missed the boat on the questions you missed? Rather than focus on what you need to do to boost your average, focus on what you need to do to think like a nurse, which is the prime reason for being in a nursing program. You may be missing some critical factor, you may have misread things, you may have over-read things... I can't tell, but you need to speak to the people who can tell you so you can do better going forward.
