I got in! Now what?

Are you currently working? If so, I'd plan on putting your job on hold or cutting down your hours significantly (<20 hours or less). I'd also focus on honing your study habits.

Purchase a crock pot!!! Good luck to you, you can do it. My children were 1.5 and 3 years old when I started nursing school.

When I was in school, school was my priority. Other things and people had to go to the wayside. My child went with me to school and into daycare on campus. My family had to take the kiddo some while I studied because little kids just don't get it that you have study. They can't help but be demanding. It was hard on us all. I didn't go out, I didn't have much fun, I studied ALL the time. It was miserable. I had to commute to school too, so that was a pain. It would have been so much easier being single without kids. But, I made it finally.

Congratulations!!!

My piece of advice is opposite than most which is learn how nclex questions are written, created and developed from from a test writer stand point first. Ncsbn website is where it starts.

THEN get a nclex book to review the test taking strategies which is really having deep knowledge of pathophysiology

Read all your chapters and learn how to read a textbook.

Learn how to learn and apply critical thinking sqr4, principles, concepts, concept maps, blooms taxonomy

Use lots of graphic organizers diagram decision tree. I find these more helpful.

Watch 3d animated videos for patho and algorithm patho videos

Nursetim youtube videos and keith are great.

Learn lecture lingo meaning many teachers use different phrases to hint whats going to be on exams

A great dx Care plan book and patho book are everything

This is all stuff i wish i knew.
