What are/were your holy grail resources to pass nursing school?

Published

So I was just accepted to nursing school and I will be starting the program August 28th. My question goes out to all of you current and former nursing students, what are/were your holy grail tools to help you pass nursing school? Were there any books, websites, YouTube channel, etc. that helped you get A's? I've heard of several websites and a couple of books but I'd love to hear what you guys think are the best resources out there to assist us fellow nursing students to not only pass our classes but actually get A's!

I also watch RegisterdNurseRN on YouTube. She helps make sense out of so much! I also watch Osmosis on YouTube. Its a cartoon drawing so it makes it fun to watch. You can also print stuff to print out from Pinterest.

Thanks for posting! I start nursing school this month as well, in Southern California! Good luck! Watching Registered Nurse RN right now!

Along with all the other great suggestions, I would like to add that you should get a study group together and go through your material together and don't just include the top students, sometimes trying to find new ways to help someone struggling to understand a concept, can make memorizing it a lot easier.

I will l finish my LPN program in December, and for me my powerpoints have been like a bible. My work book assignments are also another source for me. Sometimes I'll read powerpoints at least 15 times a piece, and so far it's kept me with high scores. I'm totally sticking to this method. Good luck to you !

I record the lectures I'm allowed to on my phone. I will replay them while I study, and I will also play them on my rides to work.

The Davis Success series! They have books for fundamentals, mental health, pharmacology, maternal-newborn, pediatrics, and med-surg! Practice questions were what helped me the most.
