Just finished my first year of the rpn - rn bridging program!
I can finally post this confidently now that all my grades are in!
This year was honestly a roller coaster, in the moment it felt like it was dragging on but now that i’m finished it feels like the year flew by in a blink. There’s been a lot of burn out, stress between trying to do well in school while balancing work, long nights of studying and more all nighters than I can count. There were definitely moments of doubt and disappointment, esp walking out of final exams feeling like I failed… but also so many rewarding moments seeing my final grades posted and appreciating all the hard work I put in!!
Looking back now, I’m really proud of how I pushed through. This year demanded a lot of resilience, so many moments where I didn’t think I could do it and even when it felt like my mental health was taking a huge hit, I kept going.
It just goes to show that you really can turn things around in any class if you put in the work. So proud of myself and all my peers. I know how tough this year has been.
Have a great summer and a much needed break!!
See you in the fall!
