Meds?!!

Nursing Students General Students

I want to get a head start on studying (I won't start my nursing program until April) and I want to start with meds. I have the Kaplan NCLEX-RN drug guide and I am wondering what is the best way, most effective way, whatever way to study these?! I was thinking note cards, but that seems like a lot. Any ideas would be helpful!

I'll check that out, thanks!

I agree with you on the mastery doesn't come by waiting. I said earlier that I learn better if I'm not rushed, and if I wait until school starts to start learning some of this stuff, I will be rushed and won't retain any of it. I have absolutely nothing going on right now, so therefore I pick up a school book when I have free time and read it at my own pace. I don't spend hours at a time looking over the material, I read it on my own time and when I'm tired of it, I simply put the book down. This way I can quiz myself over what I just read & repetitively quiz myself to retain what I have learned.
