Please tell me I'm not the only student having this issue.

Specializes in ICU.

Not the only one. I am doing my readings, but nothing is sticking! I have two more tests left. I am really scared that I am going to screw this up. At this point, I just want to pass. I feel so burnt out, lol.

You're not alone. I have not opened a book since last semester, and I don't care to.

I have an interesting senioritis/nursing school acceptance excitement combo. I'm graduating in May with a BS in Health Sciences and a minor in Holistic & Integrated Health and I've also been accepted to an ASN program for this fall. I'm burned out at one school and really excited for the other! It has been a very strange month or so since I found out I was headed to nursing clinicals this fall! Congrats on making it to your last semester of nursing! You made it this far you can do it! :yelclap:

Ugh, I know. Can't drag myself to study anymore, I am totally burned out on it. In fact im supposed to be studying for a huge ARDS/SHock/DM exam tomorrow, but alas, I am here. :) On the plus side though, I am no longer scared to death of Clinicals, and so I can actually enjoy them now! Just hang in there- pretty soon you will be able to work a full day, then come home and actually RELAX because you won't have a ton of studying to do!

I am right there with you. 19 days left in the semester and its taking forever.

I'm doing what I never did all those other semesters. Waiting till the last 2 -3 days before an exam to study. Thankfully, it has not had an adverse effect. Still passing and doing well so not gonna sweat it. 1 more unit exam and final left then its OVER!

Nope, you're not alone. I have 3 more weeks left of classes and 4 more clinicals! I have also been waiting a day or two before exams to study because of 'senioritis'. There's just no energy left. Sending in my state licensure and registration for nclex-rn forms in on May 1st already to get everything set up. So many things to think about and do at this point. I can't wait to be done!!

Represent! I feel like I have a severe and terminal case of senioritis. Only 3 weeks to go!

Hang in there...

As you can see form other posters you are not alone!! I keep trying to pick up a book and study. Our final is in less than a week but alas I am here on AN!! Oh well, maybe I will try again tomorrow! Congrats to us all on being SENIORS:yeah::yelclap:
