Rant!

I had the worst day today! I failed my first nursing test so far in my nursing school career by 1 point... The avg score was only a few points more than that, so I didn't feel sooo bad (it was the "hard test" of the semester)... BUT THEN I SAW WHAT I DID. I marked 3 correct answers on my test, and then BUBBLED IN THE WRONG LETTER ON THE SCANTRON. OH MY GOSH. NOT JUST ONCE, BUT THREE TIMES. I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW MAD I AM AT MYSELF. Not only would I not have failed, but I would've been right at the class avg!

I am SO angry. I cannot cannot cannot believe I made such a careless mistake. ALWAYS GO BACK AND RECHECK RECHECK RECHECK!!!!! Usually I'm not so careless... I don't know where my head was at :( My instructor was actually the one to point it out to me!

:eek::scrying::down::crying2::crying2:

I'm so sorry to hear you failed your test. If it's any consolation, you're not alone in the "careless" mistakes arena. I just had my first NS test, and while I didn't fail it, I did manage to do exactly what you did on one question. I also "corrected" two right answers and made them wrong. Time and time again during my prereqs I told myself not to change my answers. Did I listen to myself? Noooooo.

Just know that this was but a single test, and you are not likely to make those mistakes again. My instructor told me of a student she had once who did that but then all the answers below that one on the scantron were one "off" so that the student actually got about a dozen wrong that she really knew. Now that would be really sickening, don't you think?

Pick yourself up and move forward. As I tell my students (medical transcription, not nursing) .... Onward and Upward! :icon_hug:

Thats why I like the testing that we are finally doing. We are presented with one question at a time, you put your answer in and dont get to see it again until the end of the test after you have submitted it. It removes that whole I want to change my answer mentality that screws so many of us up
