Not sure if this is the proper place to post something like this, but I was curious if anyone here went down a similar path as me.

I'm currently a Nursing Student halfway through my program and I'm looking at the harsh reality of the possibility of not passing this semester. It breaks my heart because I've studied every which way you can think of, got into groups, talked with professors, etc etc and I'm just not making the connections to pass in class exams consistently, even though I do pretty well on ATI, and I do well and enjoy clinical if I can avoid a certain classmate that I don't get along with that loves undermine me and make themselves look good - but that's a different post.

My heart is in the right place. The intent to provide good holistic care is there and I want to be an advocate for my patient and clean their mess as much as I need to because I wouldn't want to be sitting in my mess either and the like. But with I feel like the universe is trying to tell me that this isn't my path, as cliche as that is, because I've been met with overwhelming resistance that I've tried to rise above and conquer, but it's just not working out no matter how hard I try.

That said, I've been looking at Plan B: Radiologist Tech, then specializing in MRI Tech after that program. The preregs are hardly any different than what I had to take for ADN - I just have to take Medical Terminology and Statistics. I feel like that's doable for me. I took a look at the actual program and I feel like if I can be a Nursing Student, then I can do anything (even if I do feel like the system is working against me sometimes.)

Anyway. Did anyone here make a similar change? What has been your experiences? Do you enjoy it more? Less? I'm curious. And thanks for reading!
