Hi,
I just finished my first week of nursing school. I transferred from another University. I'm 48 years old and right now am feeling every bit of my age.
The school I attend is on the quarter system. 10 weeks to finish complete semester courses. I am taking Bio, Algebra, Contemporary Issues in Humanities, Computer Applications and Nursing Orientation.
I'm totally lost in Bio having not taken a biology or any science course in over 30 years and the amount of homework for each class is staggering. I am so afraid of failing. I did very well at my previous University...transferred with a 3.7 gpa and received a full scholarship to my new school. I must maintain a 3.5 to keep the scholarship.
I would appreciate any encouragement you could give me...any tips on organizing my time spent to study etc. I don't want to give up but I don't want to just get by with my grades either.
