Well took my first nursing exam yesterday. I must say that it was a humbling experience. I passed with an 83 (passing is 73), but now know that I must turn it up a notch or two! I have made it through my science classes studying at the last minute, and have done quite well. But the way the questons are written, you really must know the material. I tried to use the process of elemination strategy that has served me well in the past, but wont cut it in my nursing program. This is going to be a loooong 2 years!!!!!!

Gerry- I had the same experience when I was starting college. I didn't know how to study, as I never really had to in high school. 4 years later, taking A&P, it clicked. That was all I was taking, and it really helped me with my study skills. Good luck on future exams. -Andrea
