Just under 2 weeks left of first semester! I can't believe how fast it went! The stress is starting to hit me, but I'm good for now. I can hold on for 2 more weeks!

Only 1 week left until the end of my first semester too, and I can't wait! Ready for a nice break, LOL.

Congratulations on almost being done!!! Do you guys have any advice for how to handle the first semester? I will start my first semester in January and need as much help as I can get.

YAY good for you!!!!!!!!!! Make sure you relax during break so your ready to take on semester two!
As for advice getting through semester one: I found it was all about staying afloat. Cram as much as you can into your brain, pass tests, and remeber it gets better and you will always be building upon what you've learned. It is not like you'll never see the content again it's the foundation. Always remember to breath and try to enjoy it because it will be over before you know it! Good luck!!!
Don't slack off! If you get behind it's next to impossible to catch up!

I have one more really intense week which is next week. Peds final Monday, OB comprehensive final Wednesday and Pharmocology Hesi Friday. I can't wait for Friday afternoon then I have off six weeks before returning for my last semester of nursing school! Anyone have any advice on how to stay focused. My nursing program is five semesters and I am so burned out now after four semesters. I don't know how I am going to get through another semester. I want my life back!

Us nurses feel good knowing that future nurses that will hopefully join us soon are serious with their studies. Kudos to you!
