I'm only halfway through my ADN program but I have saved everything since my biology prereqs. I don't plan on getting rid of anything yet. I might change my mind when I run out of space though. Right now I have at least a 3" binder of notes from each class I've taken. I put so much time and effort into those notes that I woukd be sad to throw away my work.
I'm starting my final semester in January and I am doing a bit of spring cleaning around the house before family comes over for the holidays. I am sooo close to tossing all papers from nursing school out. Please note: I have all electronic copies of lectures on my computer.Did you study class notes for the NCLEX?
Keep everything or toss??
Thanks everyone!
The real value of handwritten notes on paper for me was the act of writing them. I relied on review materials for the NCLEX, maybe referring to my class notes once.
I have always kept my papers neatly in binders and now at the end of my 4-year BSN program, I have about a meter high of binders filled with paper. I think I have looked through them once to find out something minuet. I am keeping them until I pass NCLEX so I can look into them if I REALLY need to, but after that I will probably toss them because after 2 years most of it will be out-dated anyways.
