already feeling overwhelmed and it hasnt started yet D:

I got accepted into a program that I know is going to be strenuous and time consuming, today we got the packet for our program. So much to look over. Fingerprinting, scrubs, vaccines, book list, it's so much! I'm not worried about the time it might consume, I'm worried about the money it's going to cost me! ( I knew what I was getting myself into, it the application it stated that you must be ready to meet the financial demand of the program). I will do it, and I will be broke, but it will be worth it! Just a little rant/vent. Anyone else in this situation? I am excited, it's more real now! Who's with me?

Thanks for sharing your experience. Since the program is a fast pace, would it help to have read/outline the chapters a week in advance for the upcoming lectures? The reason I ask this question is because I know how easily I can fall behind.

Here is what I do. Example: it's Tuesday. We went over chapters 1-3 Monday. On Monday I simply read over and review what we did that day. I then do an outline for the chapters we are going to do the next day. Do it's Tuesday. I review the chapters we went over Tuesday and then go back and review the Monday chapters. And when I say review, I don't mean extensively. You would be surprised at how much you remember just by rereading the material everyday. I didn't do any prior reading before the semester started but if you think that will help you then go for it!!! Everyone is different. To make sure I didn't fall behind this semester I never left school until my work was done. Whether it was rereading the chapters or finishing my pharmacology drug cards, I never went home having something to do.

That's what my friend have said as well. Thank you for the tip :)
