What to do when you've exceeded the limit on repeating a class?

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Ok, I'm having trouble in psychology. This is my second time taking it. I know this is supposed to be an easy class, but its not for me. My school says a class can't be taken more than twice. I'm guessing this includes withdrawals. I dropped it the first time. I just don't know what to do. The semester isn't over til December. Do I drop, or risk getting a bad grade? Either way, I won't be able to apply to the lpn or rn program. I feel so horrible now. I'll never be a nurse if I don't pass :(

I would go online and book an academic advising apointment. They will be able to help u with that question. it depends on your school and the school your trying to get into, every where has different requirements.

dont get discouraged either !

Can you meet with your professor and figure out how to study better? Is there really no hope left or, if you can pick up your grades now, will you be all right by the end of the semester? Talk with your professor first. Then, see if your professor knows of someone who can tutor you, if they have that program set up already (my school does supplemental instruction sessions that are free), or if a classmate would be willing to help you study.

The best thing to do is to talk to your prof to figure out what you are having the most problems with (review the tests you've already taken, look at quiz grades, etc.), then you can figure out what you really need to work on. Don't give up though! It sounds to me like you just need to figure out how to study for the class.
