this morning i went to take my bio test and this is the hardest test of the class, it can't be dropped also. I studies so hard but i just couldn't remember how to draw the different cycles that are in volver. so i took some cards with it drwn on it. I didn't know that the room has a hiden camrea. Half wy through the test i was caught. I explained why i did it. this is my ssecond tie taking the class and on the thrird attempt i would have to pay out of state fees. This is a pre-qur. for the RN program. I cried when i tiold the teacher i was so upset that I would be kicked out of school but she was so happy that I told her the truth that she withdrew me form the class. Now I want to go back to the community college I first attened when I got done with high school but they requrir college alagbra and I have a learning disablity in math. I have a very hard time. Should I go back to the colege that I started or just quit school? I'm still very upset about what I idi and I know it was wrong but i was desprate.
There may be options for math tutoring, Iknwo my comunity college offers high school math to help prepare you for the higher levels, you may want to ask a guidance person or something.
You may want to look into a different direction for your career. Bio can be a big part of nursing as well as math and I wouldn't want you to work so hard to do something that you don't feel confident in later. Maybe you can talk to a guidance person about that as well.
I'm sorry that you had to experience this.
I don't think you should quit school, but perhaps you should take a break before taking that class again and get some of the easier pre-reqs out of the way.
Like the other poster said, bio and math are a big part of nursing. If you want to continue and you know you have trouble in certain areas, I'd suggest looking into study groups, tutoring, etc for the subjects that you find difficult.
I'm working towards getting into the nursing program at my college. I haven't taken bio since my sophomore year in HS which was about 7 years ago. Instead of going right into the human anatomy and physiology class, I'm going to take human biology first as a refresher so that I'm better prepared.
First, don't be so hard on yourself...bio is definitely hard, and so many people cheat--everyone's done it at some point.
Wow, if they had a hidden camera in some of my classes, I'd be in hot water already--boiling hot water.
I have friends in the RN program, and it seems that bio and chem are the pre-reqs that do a lot of people in.
For algebra, if you know that you're weak at it, arm yourself with a tutor, and talk to the teacher if you feel those problems creaping up on you. If you have a choice, research the teachers to find out which one is easier. That, believe me, could make the difference of hating math and enjoying it.
And don't even think about leaving college---you will get through bio!!!
thanks for the support. I reappiled to the school i first went to when i grauduated high school. I am able to go their as a transiate sdtudent so i can just take the bio class. Its alot to home than my other school was. I'm looking foward to starting in the spring. I am feeling much better now.
