Should I Stay or Go?

UPDATE: Changes: New Log In Requirement

I think I messed up so badly that I can't go back. Let me explain. So I started nursing school in May this year. My grades were a mixed bag. This semester has kicked my butt though. Especially farm psychology and pathophysiology. Recently I got super super sick with laryngitis after taking a pharmacology test, which I'm bombed and I had to quit the class leaving me with just physiology well I was sick. My parents tried to help me study for path out by super grilling me with questions studying and looking back. It's complete nonsense that they were doing that's why I was actively mostly unable to talk or breathe really well. Anyway, to get them to leave I wrote an email to my Dean asking for her to intervene because my professor had to answer the question I had and in the email my parents told me to ask if it was a racial or rumor accusation that had cost a delay, which makes even less sense now. My dean was appalled that I asked that question And in retrospect I'm appalled that I asked that question but I knew I just wanted my parents to leave so I could sleep and get better. Anyway, my question is should I leave this semester and go to another school because I've been accepted into an ED program which is much closer to my house than BSN program. The BSN program is a four hour round trip ATM program is 20 minutes round-trip and has a higher NCLEX pass rate plus I work at a state hospital that will pay for my BSN. What are you guys think?

It is very difficult to discern exactly what happened here. Also I'm not familiar with an ED program (ADN?). If you're asking whether to continue at your current school to get your BSN or pursue your ADN at a much closer school, I would probably go with the latter and then pursue the BSN allowing the hospital to cover your tuition. Can you clarify the allegation made to the Dean though?

If you're determined to pursue your BSN, it may be that you just need to go in with hat in hand and get it out on the table that it was a poor choice you made under duress while ill. Just remember, nursing requires very critical thinking so in future, reason things out before acting.
