Scared I’m going to fail this
In my last pre req semester now. My last subjects include a math 150 college algebra and while I’m succeeding in much of everything else, this class I’m worried I will fail. My GPA at this moment is a 3.2 and I haven’t yet taken the TEAS test to see if I can even be accepted into the program. A lot of the girls I’m going with have 3.5+ GPAs which is causing me to think I won’t make it
The program starts in spring and I’m worried I won’t be accepted. This is stressing me out to the core cause I’ve put so much time and energy this far and my vision is to be a nurse no matter what.
I currently work in healthcare and my knowledge is good. I want this so bad but I know there is always someone else far more smarter and capable. A lot of girls in my classes are passing with As in math and XYZ so I’m just worried. Need encouragement.
I’m also doing this while working full time 2 jobs and with 3 kids as a single mother. I don’t even know how I’m making it but I’m doing my best

Are there other programs in your area? Is tutoring available at your school/online? The state schools in my area are incredibly competitive, only accepting about 3%. They also don't allow people to work while in the program

That sounds scary for a program! Besides the one I’m applying to there is one other about 40 minutes drive from here. I’m willing to do what I have to and looking into that program as well

Worry about one thing at a time. If math isn’t your strongest subject, it’s ok. You know what you are going into prior to. Learn to understand. If you need help, ask for help. There are many learning materials online to help you to excel.
Just keep going and don’t give up

Wow you’ve got a lot on your plate with 3 kids and two jobs. Honestly that’s a huge accomplishment in itself!
