The end of process 2

Well, I'm still in the program. Woo Hoo! I did much better on this final exam than I did on the process 1 exam. Many people did not.
My car pool buddy failed, and decided that nursing is not for her. I feel bad for her because she put in alot of time with the pre-requisites. Some classmates dropped the class before the final exam because the grades were too close to call. (If we fail 2x, we have to go to LPN school before we can come back to RN school. I believe you can drop the classes as many times as you need. It is just a waste of time and money.)
At least 10 classmates had to drop in the 2nd week because they failed the math test twice. We have a math exam at the beginning of every new class. If we fail, we have to drop the class. This is good because we really want to be nurses that give the right amount of medications to our patients. It is bad for students who have test anxiety, but they need to get it together.

There was a rumor going around that there were only 50 spots for the GIGU class so the professors were making the exams harder. Our professor advised us that this is not true, but several people chose to believe it anyway. It doesn't really matter.....study, study, study, and then study things they don't tell you to study. That is the only way to pass these exams. I thought the final exam was very fair. It was tough, but fair.

We have 10 days off, but one of those days we need to go to the lab and return demo/practice our skills for GIGU. So therefore, I still have some studying to do. I have started the reading list for the next class. This textbook seems to be written on a higher level, so it should be interesting.

I did not request more hours for work because I believe that I need some down time with the kiddos. Take it when you can get it right? I hope to post more about the actual classes now that we only have one to focus on at a time. I'll keep you updated! Blessing to all!
