Should i switch preceptors

Currently half way thru orientation in ED. My preceptor pulled me aside after the shift and told me im not fit to be in the ED and i may need to go to the floorbefore coming back. I feel so devastated. She thinks my nursing school has not prepared me enough to be a nurse and that her nursing students know more than me. She thinks im gonna lose my liscence. She says the shift was super easy for her while i was standing the whole time. I know i have alot to work on. When im with another preceptor i feel like im doing so much better and is given much clearer and better direction on what i should be doing. The advice she gives me dont make sense and i dont even know what i should be working on. I really do want to improve and succeed on my unit. I already talked to my manager about switching preceptors. Currently im working to learn extra on my days off. Meds patho etc

I just got kicked out of my ACLS class for being late. I was trying to plead my case to the instructors but i felt like i made a scene. At the moment it felt like the end of the world so i might have embarrassed myself in front of other people. I rescheduled to another day hopefully they wont remember me. I was about to cry. Sorry if this doesn’t apply. I just feel so lost and a failure as a new nurse…
