Yes I did that right. I am very afraid of not passing my last semester I am currently passing by 2points but we still have a test on Tues and the final. And I need to improve my critical thinking skills in clinical we have 4 days left of that.
I am not a great test taker and my academic advisor keeps telling me I am find just keep up the readings and studying and I will be fine. But I am sooooo afraid.
Does anyone know if you passed 3 semesters of RN school and also did well in pre reqs if you would have to take all the classes for LPN school? I know there are classes LPN's skip when they want to become RN's but I am not sure if it works the other way around?

For some reason I think many of us feel like we may not pass that final semester. I did, and I know many of my classmates felt the same way. Almost like this is too good to be true, something is going to happen.
You have time. Just relax and study, one thing I did when I was stressed about not passing is I figured out exactly to the question how many questions I could miss on the final and still pass the class. Odds are it will be a bunch. If your getting an 82% and you need an 80% to pass, that would mean you would have to get approx a 77% on the final to fail. Is that going to happen with all your preparation? No.
You can do it, just relax-focus and study.
Best of luck.
And to answer your initial question. God forbid in some crazy way you fail this class, just take it again in the Fall, and so what you will be an RN a semester later than planned.
