Back In Business

After dropping my Long Term Care course it has taken me a year to get back into my college's program thanks to a screwy wait list. Since it was the last course we have to take in order I couldn't do anything else but wait and work (thankfully they needed me back full time). Hopefully things will go smoothly this time around (even though I'll have the same theroy instrutor who was teaching for the first time last fall). After that it's on to OB!

Re: Back In Business

81% on my second test. Half the class failed it (<80% for us is failing). Rumor has it that the instructor is on probation, which is all fine and dandy, but how does that help those of us stuck with her?

I hear that. If you'd taken the class earlier, would you have had the same instuctor?

Re: Back In Business

I had the same instuctor last fall and dropped the course. I waited a year to get back into the program (I had take this course before moving on to the next one), and low and behold I got stuck with the same one. I've been trying to help my classmates, but not all of the questions on the tests are the same as last year. Out of 35 people to start with, only 20 of us were in class yesterday. I believe 8 people have dropped the class as of yesterday.

Stay the course, pun intended, and be strong. Good or not so good instructor makes no nevermind D/T you will prevail!
