How do you get through the last few months of nursing school?

[bella147]

Hello everyone! I am in my fifth term out of six in nursing school, and I feel SO burned out with school at this point. It is very hard for me to stay motivated and interested in nursing school right now. I'm also feeling very nervous about being a nurse on my own soon, and I feel as if I'm not developing in clinicals as I should be. But my nurses say I'm doing a good job. Does anybody have any thoughts or suggestions, tips? Thank you so much! :)

I have 24 more weeks. And I hate it.

I could have written this thread also. I have six weeks to go and am so discouraged I can hardly stand it. I started off pretty well but I have failed my last two tests with a 72 and 74. I am doing great in clinical so far but just got the next instructor so I am feeling so unsure. My confidence is gone I don't want to feel this way anymore. My acne from the stress has been pretty rough these past few weeks too. Its good to know I am not the only one.

I just passed my last med-surg class with an A. I have had no motivation to study since the semester started in August but it was worth MAKING myself crack open the books to get my A. I treated myself to a massage this afternoon, after my final med-surg test! Only 8 more weeks and one more class to go. Now that it is getting closer, I am finally able to shake off the unmotivation and realize that I am so CLOSE to graduation!!! YIPPEE!!!

CONGRATS!!! I take my final for my last medsurg tomorrow. I'm shooting for an A but I'm so demotivated I highly doubt I'll get my A, even though I'm so freaking close. First exam 88, second exam 89... so A is definitely possible. Only 8 more weeks left. Wowsers.
