how strict is centennial pn compared to rn programs?
i just got accepted into the centennial PN program and i’m trying to decide if i should accept it or go into business instead.
for context, i was previously in a nursing program at another school and i failed the same first semester foundations/lab course twice. i was always just below the passing cutoff and i did better on the final the second time, but it still delayed me a lot and honestly made me really anxious about nursing school overall.
i wanted to ask current/past PN students:
what are the passing grades like in the program?
is it the same strict passing requirements as regular RN programs or a bit more lenient?
are the lab/skills evaluations really hard to pass?
do you feel like the program is manageable if you put the work in even if you struggled before?
i genuinely still like nursing and want to continue but i’m scared of ending up in the same situation again so i just want honest opinions 😭
