In the Fall 2004 semester, I failed my hospital clinical site and recieved a failing grade. I was in the first semester. In the Spring 2005 semester, I went to a new nursing school hoping for a fresh start. In the past 2 weeks I did extremly well in my theory exams. I am one of the top 3 students in grades BUT in my lab check offs, I am behind too much and I am just too far gone to catch up. :crying2: :crying2: :crying2: Instructors are looking at me as incompetent/weeding me out. It is common for them to do that and it hurts me to see that. :crying2:
I know that you are thinking, I am just a failing student and I am a casuality but you know failing students do try to be a nurse but it just does not happen for some reason...In the Fall 2004 semester, I gave it my best vert best effort and still failed...This semester, I tried also but things did not work out right..
Good bye all.. :crying2: :crying2: :crying2: And when you seeing missing students in your class, think well of them because some of them gave it their best effort like me but it just did not work out.. :crying2:

I'm sorry to hear that. As it happened at two schools, I'm sure they aren't just picking on you to weed you out. Don't blame the instructors. Take a good hard honest look at yourself, your strengths and your weaknesses. Don't a victim.
Good luck in whatever you do. Perhaps there's something else in the healing arts that you'd be better at. Best wishes.

I am so sorry you are so hurt. When some one wants something so badly you hate to see them think of themself as a failure. You are NOT a failure. You are having some set backs. Please! find Tutor365SON post from 1/23/05 @4:30 P.M. It was wonderful, and may give you some insight. Please don't be down on yourself. I'll be praying for you.
I started nursing school and was 10 months from graduation with my R.N.when my husband and I were in an accident. My husband was killed and I was almost killed. When I recovered I went back to school and got my L.P.N. I didn't have the money to go back for my R.N. For the longest time I felt like a failure and very sad, because I had not completed my R.N. We are always so hard on ourselves. I was not a failure and neither are you. As long as we have breath in our bodies we have hope! Don't give up. Anything good is worth fighting for.

I am so sorry to hear that things didn't work out for you. I hope you will take some time off now and take good care of yourself. I can only imagine how painful this must be for you.

sad, i am sorry to hear you are not doing well in a second nursing program. from your past posts i know that you have had numerous problems in nursing school. hopefully, this time you will realize that nursing is not for everyone. you need to stop and think about things honestly and understand that your attitude had a lot to do with you not doing well in school. please realize that by playing the victim you set yourself up for failure.
take a long, hard, honest look at yourself and go into a field that you will do better in. there are many, many other healthcare related fields out there where you can help others.
i'm sorry if this seems harsh, but you really need to understand how you contributed to your problems - and then go on to find an area where you will shine. i wish you all the very best, really i do. take care -
It felt very bad when an instructor passed me up from a check off because I did not perform a skill right on the first attempt. :crying2: :crying2: Also, a different instructor told me today, that I am struggling. The funny thing about it, is that I know I can do these skills competently if it was in a different environment...I could not take how the instructors were treating me so I decided to throw in the towel to save my dignity.. :crying2: :crying2: I hope I made the right choice.. :crying2: I was behind in two check offs and everyone else was finished..
