congrats to all who did well this semester/quarter. i just saw my grades and i am very happy. i made an a in all my classes for the semester in a & p i, intro. to nursing, nursing lecture, nursing clinicals, and nursing informatics. i didn't even imagine i did this well this first semester. i was so sure i was barely passing a & p, so i'm grateful just for that small miracle. good luck and much success to everyone next semester/quarter!!! 0 Likes

PilotJim68 Dec 21, 2003 Congrats on your GREAT grades...keep working hard and keep your nose to the grindstone. I made decent grades too... "A" in Pharm I, "A" in Nutrition I and a "B" in Nursing I...missed an "A" by one lousy point !!! Well, I learned alot and now I know a little more of what to expect so with a lot of hard work and studying, I will be shooting for those straight "A's". :) 0 Likes
tmarie75 Dec 21, 2003 meredithT,I rely on my notes a lot, so I try to take as much detailed notes in class as I possibly can. Then I go back through the chapters and add info. to my notes on topics that were covered in class that we didn't get enough detail on. I try to read a lot though I admit sometimes it's hard to keep up, so that's why I skim chapters and look for the most important info. in each chapter. I can't study from the book, I have to take notes because it helps me retain information better. Some of it is also just critical thinking. When there's a question on a test I don't know I skip it and come back to it then I try to reason through it and eliminate choices until I come up with what I think is the correct answer. 0 Likes
