Paula,
I read your letter and my advise is that if you really want this, than do not give up and keep fighting!!!!
Have you addressed this issue to the very highest person at your school??? what was done to you was wrong and for some reason the man upstairs is challenging you and wants to see just how badly you want this!!
I am 43 and am currently in school to be a medical assistant!! i have always dreamed of being a nurse but, i really am not a good student and test taker!! i get very nervous!! i am currently doing ok in school averaging a B but, it has been tuff for me!!! You have a lot of courage and don't give up on your dream.
Nancy
