I need help with time management for first semester of BSN school

Print out all your syllabuses, using a nice big paper planner- and color coding for each class, put every due date for projects, posts, papers, tests, etc. I outline all quizzes and exams in red as well. Then do an index card for each date, same color coding. On index cards write out details of what has to be done and how long you need to get it done. Then lfill planner in with every other thing in your entire life. Classses, club meetings, clinicals, pre-lab hours, travel home, etc. Now start clipping those cards onto pages of planner with a start date for each. So for example, I might have a paper due for N412 on Nov 8. And I estimate that I want a week to work on it. I know you won't take a week, but my paper processs is to do a little over several days, then a rewrite. But I notice that I have 2 exams that week, and I'm going to be studying for those, as well as lectures and clinical. My planner shows I'm better off putting that paper on the planner 2 weeks before it's due. Make sense? This is what works for me, hope it helps. I'm a new grad- so it's tried and true!

Thank you for your feedback, I am willing to try anything to be successful.

Aside from that, set aside time every day for doing your work and studying as if it is another class. I don't have class on Monday and Wednesdays, but I still go to school those days and do my work for the other days. I start each session with whatever my first class is the next day and make sure I have work done for that first, then move on systematically.

It's not hard, it's mostly a matter of just doing it :)

Don't leave things until last minute. Get them done sooner than later and when life throws you a curveball (almost guaranteed to happen) it will be less stressful that scrambling to get everything done last minute. It's a good skill for when you become a nurse too ^_^
