The student pilot stated that she was making a full flap landing when the airplane bounced during the flare. The airplane bounced a second time and on the third bounce the nose wheel contacted the runway. The pilot was able to taxi the airplane off the runway to the ramp where the nose gear, propeller, and firewall damage was discovered. She stated that under the same circumstances again, she would perform a go around instead of trying to land the airplane.
Probable Cause: the student pilot's improper recovery from a bounced landing.
