I am a 25 yr. old nursing student in a diploma program, i finally finished by first year! I have been average in my studies, 85% but i want to do better and i have the desire to do better but i do not know where to really to begin. The next semester starting in July is suppose to be very difficult (MEDSURG) A I want to be better than an 85% student. I have bought a study guide to go along with my med-surg book and i plan on working thru it this summer before classes start (is it to soon?) I want to be the best i can possibly be throughout the rest of this program. Can anyone give me any pointers to finish out this program!!!!!
