how can i study for the psychiatric class?

i'm in my psychiatric class right now and i am having a horrible time with the exams. i was a A student in my previous classes, and now I am barely passing. I study and look at a lot of nclex questions, but it seems like the questions on the exams are harder than the ones in the book. please help

I've had similar issues with psych. If you did well in one subject with a particular method, the same method may not be useful or beneficial to you in another subject. Change up your studying routine. Try something new. Something fresh. Something you haveven't tried before. Look up studying techniques on here or google. You'll find something. Good luck.

I found that it helped to focus on how I would communicate with a person who had each kind of disorder that we studied. Such as with someone having a hallucination saying "I don't see anything, that must be frightening for you." Most of my questions were focused that way and not on simple comprehension of conditions or medications. It took me a while to get it right and I didn't end up with an A is psych because of it.

For my class, it was very important focus on THERAPEUTIC COMMUNICATION. So that is what I would focus on. Also side affects of antipsychotics was a big deal as well. I barely looked at my book, but I would use the internet as a resource its great!
