I am in an ASN program and currently taking Med surg 1. I have been struggling so much. I am a great student, I put in the time. I study hard and make sure I know it. There's not a lot of time when I'm not studying. I go over the material before class, tape lectures, take notes, and review questions on prepU as well as in my textbook and quizzes I find online related to the material I am currently going over at the time. Yet, even after quizzing myself and doing group sessions where it is clear I know the material I still do poorly on tests. I have test anxiety but it's gotten a lot better. I feel like there is a disconnect somewhere where I'm not getting something that everyone else is. Any help would be great and words of encouragement ha.

You'd probably do well to seek some assistance from the academic services group at your school which could help with the test anxiety, perhaps offer tutoring, and - if warranted - arrange for test accommodations.
