Vicki - I don't know where else to turn. I just got transferred into nursing school. I have at 3.75 in my pre-nursing classes. I am having a terrible time with health assessment. (Jarvis) I have 63, 65 on the first two tests. I asked other people how they are studying and they say "just read throught the text" I have studied and studied and I don't know what to do. the prof just says study more. I think I am studying the wrong way - the wrong text - I don't know if I can memorize the whole book!!!! any tips?
