Suggestions for appeal letter

Published

Nursing student at SCC. I would like to ask you about my nursing career.

A nursing career is my Ultimate goal, because I would like to see myself to make patient feel better and comfortable. To meet my goal I have to cut my work hours and study more hours to pass the nursing course. Because Nursing is the only thing gives me sense of life.

After I have accepted to the nursing program at SCC I've understood what the real meaning of nursing so I am very connected to the nursing career. In my first semester nursing class I did not pass the course because I did not enough time to study the material. Now I would like to continue my nursing education and I am preparing myself to give more time to study the material. I would do whatever it takes until I can see my sole , mind and body is feel a true happiness by seeing a good patient care.

I am very focus on patient need, such as how to read patient feeling in physiological and psychological. I am good at how to approach all kinds of patients Example, calming agitated, anxious, distress patients. Patients are very sensitive words and action so am accountable and responsible for my action and words to word patient care.

I need your help to build my nursing skill at SCC. In my first semester nursing program, I have learned about nursing skill to promote health, to prevent illness, to restore health, and to facilitate coping with disability or death. I want to be a skill full nurse in the society. Hope you will give me the chance to grow my nursing knowledge at SCC.

Thank you for your help

Definitely some spelling and grammar errors. But I can tell you, "appeals" are not well received on this forum. Especially for a fundamentals course.

Skillful (is one word)

Just FYI, you can't appeal the NCLEX either.

Is English your first language? I don't mean to insult you and I am not trying to be mean. There are a lot of errors in verb tense and in grammar. I do understand what you are trying to say and it is commendable. I don't know if it will be enough to win your appeal. Try to find someone (preferably native English speaker) who can do a thorough proofread for you and who can help you put your feelings into words. I would try to help you but it would take too long via this forum. Good luck to you :-)

I imagine this is not very politically correct, but OP, I strongly recommend you take an English writing course. You might have excellent interpersonal skills, but your English writing skills are going to get in the way of things you want to do. You will have a much easier time of anything you attempt if you build a solid foundation with your communication skills.

Good luck to you.

Thanks for your comment. English is not my first language. I will correct the errors in spelling and grammar. Is there anything that I need to correct? Can I posted again after I have correction?

I don't care for the comment " you can't appeal the nclex". There are plenty of valid reasons to appeal grades. And you can repeat the nclex. Schools and instructors are not infallible, as they would like you to think.

There's a difference between retaking a test & appealing it. From the sound of things I think she is appealing the decision to try to get back into the program. Which means she didn't pass a class or classes.

Repeat and appeal are two different things. Appealing changes grades, hence why I said you can't appeal the NCLEX. You fail, you fail. No one you can beg to change it. I'm well aware you can repeat it.

I don't think she is actually appealing her failure.

Looks like a an essay/letter asking for a second chance to repeat the class. She has to reapply for the rest to the program, and this is required.

As for the original poster, maybe your failing fundamentals has something to do with the language barrier. This letter, isn't very good in my opinion.
