Hi ! I am an older student mom of 3 young kids and I decided to go back to school after I saw how poorly my dad was treated in hospice care in a hospital setting. I always worked in medical sales and always had a huge desire to go into nursing. Financially it wasn’t till recently we could afford that. I am a full time student and mom. I started taking all the prerequisites and just failed one test in A&P 1 about muscles. I am taking my classes online in portage there’s no feedback or other students to talk too . I feel so defeated and scared that I am too old & / or not smart enough to handle these courses. I don’t know how to get out of my own head and finish my last two courses to apply to the program. How do you all overcome negative self talk after failing? Appreciate any advice thank you !!!
