Bergen Community College- All levels 2014

Hello fellow (exhausted) nursing students!!! I am currently a level 1 student at Bergen Community College, Paramus, NJ, and would really appreciate some guidance as to how to effectively conquer this level!!! A week in and I am halfway through my readings for 1 class lol and would like to conquer the rest before next weeks new material.

My question for any higher level BCC nursing students is did you memorize all the chapter readings or just power points? A lot of information I've read in the readings is not in the powerpoint, so does that mean it won't be on the exam? Should I just be reading the corresponding section in the book of whatever was said in powerpoint? Thanks so much!
