One thing at a time. But I completely understand your frustration. Sometimes I think the instructors get a kick out of watching us scramble for "dear-life".

The state makes basic requirements for nursing schools, so not all is due to your instructors. The most useful characteristic for a nurse is to learn to prioritize, so you can practice that now. 10% can be the difference between failure and passing, but if you have other priorities and only get 5% off that project, that is better than zero. Good luck!!

When you start a nursing program, always remember that you have a series of hoops to jump through. Some are en fuego, some are not. You just have to shut your eyes and leap.

Gahhhh!!! Well I got the prioritization part down pat, it's just irritating that all the assignments are due at once lol! Anyhow I got it all done and a B on that major project. I'm thrilled :)
