did well on a&p1 but got a C for a&p2!!!

Published

So i just finished my spring semester at Merritt College and so far i have a&p 1 out of the way fall 2014 i received a B ! I managed to get high B's in the class while being a mom to new born and managed to get an A and a B in other classes as well. Now this spring 2015 i got all B's in my other classes like psychology and communication and math ... But in a&p 2 i received a B !! I KNOW!! I should of had A's but during the beginning of the year me and my husband had a lot going on we had to move out and find a place to live we ended at my moms and on top of that money was so tight and my daughter was sick a lot and having to juggle an a&p 2 course which by the way the proff. Teaching the lecture was fine it was the lab proff. Who was horrible people having A's in lectures were getting C's in lab !! I managed to get 2 Cs and i B ... That was the hardest I've ever had to work for a C in lab in lecture i had all high Bs like 88% and 89% ... And that's with studying with a crying baby and no sleep plus being hungry sometimes from forgeting to eat because of studying and still having mommy and wife duties.....

SORRY FOR THE EXTRA VENTING !!! I REALLY WANT TO KNOW IF ANY OF YOU KNOW OF ITS OKAY TO RE TAKE A PRE REQ LIKE A&P AT ANOTHER COLLEGE AND GET A BETTER GRADE AND USE THAT GRADE OVER THE C GRADE FROM THE OTHER CAMPUS... MY SCHOOL DOES NOT LET YOU RETAKE A COURSE FOR A BETTER GRADE UNLESS YOU HAD A D OR FAILED IT OR DROPPED IT!!!

I KNOW I COULD OF DONE WAY BETTER AND I LOVE A&P I JUST DONT WANT IT TO AFFECT MY SCIENCE GPA ... I STILL HAVE TO TAKE CHEM AND MICRO ... CHEM I AM TAKING THIS SUMMER!! ANY ADVICE OR SIMILAR EXPERIENCES???

Sorry meant to say in a&p 2 I received a C!!! :(

You need to speak with the nursing schools you plan to apply to in order to find out what their policies are regarding re-takes. The C will still appear on your transcript even if you retake it somewhere else. Again, follow up with the schools you are applying to.

Thank you I planned on calling the schools and seeing what they would take !!
