Recently Dismissed from Program

[KeepAtIt]

I am going to be dismissed from my school's program here shortly although I haven't been officially notified. This past semester I have failed two subjects in the first semester of junior year; medsurg & pharm, and have received a D which is not passing in my OB class. I have had a familial conflict which I was travelling cross state once and often more a week to balance my home life and school. I understood the consequences and was unable to drop the classes with an uncompleted mark. I understand my irresponsibility in keeping up with school and am in the position to find another path for my degree. Schools I have emailed will not accept me due to my impending dismissal, and my school will not schedule an appeal for me. Any help will be greatly appreciated and I thank you all in advance for taking the time to read this.

[pookyp, LPN]

I understand that....my POV is coming from someone who HAS failed a program before, then went into a PN program, practiced as a LPN and successfully completed a BSN program...nursing school is HARD, period...there is a few postings that I have seen in the past few days that are trending towards, "yeah, go to LPN school, 'cause it's easier", or "I'm going to PN school cause it's easier and my RN program was hard" and my soapbox was to the point that it's NOT.

I still stand by my soapbox.

I understand what you're saying.
