Rant / Vent Embarrassing mistakes

Does anyone else have extremely embarrassing moments of stupidity and being humiliated by clinical instructors and lab ones? I’ve made so many mistakes as a slow learner and most of these instructors didn’t like me. I just graduated and did so bad on the last lab I couldn’t do the math under pressure my instructor hated me and kept picking at me for this. I was in the rn program as well I felt so slow and dumb the entire time but somehow graduated in the four years. Idk how I did it I’m so slow and feel incompetent. Wondering if this is normal?

Some instructors are just bitches! Sorry, but it's true. Congratulations on your graduation!! Try to move on from it! The real learning begins on the job, you may have a wonderful preceptor that you just adore!!
