Anyone in Practical Nursing fail one course twice? What happened?
hey guys, kinda stressed and just looking to see if anyone has been in a similar situation 😭
i’m in practical nursing and this was my second time taking the same level 1 nursing course. i passed my other classes, but i’m probably not passing this one.
basically i missed an in-class evaluation worth 10% because i was sick. i emailed my instructors the night before saying i probably wouldn’t be able to come and asked if there was anything i needed to do/document, but i didn’t realize there was a separate formal absence reporting process. because i didn’t do that, i got a 0.
i submitted an appeal because i did contact them before the evaluation and i’m asking to do a make-up/alternate evaluation, not asking them to just give me marks.
the 0 also put my final grade 1% below the range needed to qualify for a supplemental, which makes the situation even worse 😭 since this is my second attempt at the course, i’m scared i’ll get academically discontinued.
has anyone had something similar happen? if you failed only one course but passed everything else, did they let you retake just that course? were you able to take it through continuing education/part-time studies and then come back into the program? or did you have to wait and apply for readmission?
especially looking for experiences from PN students, but any student who went through discontinuance/readmission would help. i know i need to talk to the school for the official answer, just wanna know what actually happened to other people.
