- What happens when you fail a class?
- How many classes can you fail?
- How many classes can you drop and do you have to drop passing or can you drop failing?
- Do the dropped classes add up to be a drop failing?
It is a certainty no matter what school you go to will be hard.
But you need to find out what the penalty for failure in a class is.
What I am about to say is not to scare you.
I want you to be successful.
But do not go into this with blinders on because you will be out thousands of dollars and unable to transfer a single credit.
The University of South Alabama will only let you drop 3 classes and you have to drop passing.
At USA you can only fail 1 class because the second one you are out of the program.
You can have 2 drop failing but they add up to a fail
Once you fail 2 classes you are out of the program.
And the program is designed to try to fail you.
Oh and don't think you can transfer any credits from the nursing program to another nursing program. Time and classes served will never transfer to another program.
Do not think it will not happen to you.
WE STARTED WITH 40 PEOPLE AND ARE DOWN TO ABOUT 11 BECAUSE OF THIS LUDICROUS POLICY!!!!
The classes are set up to persuade you to drop.
As a USA student you will attend classes a whole semester and only earn 50 % of your grade.
You will earn the other 50% after drop date in the last week and a half.
The whole time you are given test that you basically can not study for.
You can read the book cover to cover and go in and take the test and fail it.
(this is not my opinion it is fact) at drop date 95% of the people were failing in at least half of their classes. NO JOKE, NO LIE.
Oh and a test review, YEAH RIGHT
The professors actually allow you to see what you missed.
That is a Joke.
There are some real smart students in the nursing class who can call them on all of their mistakes on a test, so they do not want to give you a chance to seek out their insubordination.
Their attitude is They have served their time, and are there to draw a pay check and not answer a single question you have.
In Adult I, and II , Health Assessments, and Pediatrics among other classes are used to weed people out.
In these Classes it takes luck not book smarts to pass the test.
Ask any one who has attended one of these classes.
After you take the test If by the grace of God you do get a test review they are moving the questions and answers so fast it is almost impossible to even read them.
This is because they are afraid someone might cheat or actually learn something from class, or worse yet find a answer that was marked wrong that the person actually got right.
They say all of this is to prepare you to take boards.
Since when does not teaching a class helping you pass boards.
In my educated opinion from what I have witnessed in these adult and health assessment classes the majority of these teacher could not even pass their own test.
THAT IS NO LIE, AND YOU CAN TAKE THAT TO THE BANK AND CASH IT.
I speak to every nurse I can about this issue and the consensus is the same.
The teachers pull questions out of the air and even if you show them in the book where they are wrong, they will not change the grade. Why, because they are the teacher and you are the scrub.
Like I have stated it is all a game to see who can endure the garbage without blowing their stack.
IT IS NURSE BOOTCAMP.
