I used binders for each class. You usually have 3 classes in a semester so I bought 3 different colored binders and put everything for each class into its own binder. Also downloaded all the info from the website they use to my hard drive because once I had a test and their site was down and was panicking cause I couldn't get to the info I needed for the test. I also made a monthly calendar on my computer and put all my class days, tests, papers due date, clinicals, etc on it so I could see a month at a glance what I had to do and where I had to be. I used the binders with a clear plastic sleeve on the front and kept the monthly calendars in there so I could quickly look at them but they were kept neat and not ripped/crumpled. I bought a backpack w/wheels cause the books are pretty heavy and I kept extra pencils, notebooks, etc in there. You do need to keep organized. It can be so crazy. You will find out what works for you. Good luck.
