The pressure is on!!!

I have been working hard through out this semester in A&P 1. I am now to the point where I need to get an 80% or higher on my last two tests to get a C in the class. I am stressing!!! I think taking 5 other classes along with A&P was too much. I think I am going to have a breakdown if I have to repear this class. What's sad is I know all that we have learned in the class. The teacher, who is quite fond of critical thinking, makes the tests so crazy! When I got into thinking about a question on oe of the tests I end up over thinking and do I wanna pick the answer that is right or what she thinks is right? UGH!! So I have spent my entire spring break studying for the next chapter test, it includes 3 chapters. I have taken some pretests online and have gotten an 80 on one chapter and a 90 on the other. I am currently working on the last chapter practice exam. I have a good foundation this time, lord knows all I do is study these days! I will just be totally down if I dont make a C. Anyone have any advice?:trout:

Hi! Sorry you're stressing. I'll have to agree with you that taking 5 other classes with A&P 1 was too much. I am also taking A&P 1 but with only 1 other class (Algebra). If I was to give you any advice it would be to study to know the material. Don't study to pass the test, study to know the material. If you know the material sufficiently, you will pass the test.

I hope things turn out well. In my program, a C grade wouldn't get me into the nursing program. If you have to take the course over again, it isn't the end of the world. After all, you are only 24. I am 52, imagine if I had to take it over again?!

:uhoh21: Wow, you were a braver person than me. I couldn't imagine carrying a load like that. I do hope the best for you, and as mentioned before just study the material. I too only took one other class with ANP 102 this semester and two with ANP 101. At least you know what teacher to avoid for ANP 102, and it is always a plus to ask around about professors to avoid chaotic and judgemental teachers. I think you will do alright.
