Just got first job, little nervous

[EightySeven]

Don't know if I have a particular question in mind, really just looking for any advice.

I have just received my first nursing job since being out of school for 8 months. It is a part time night position. I'm a bit sad its not full time but I had to accept because it is only the second place I have gotten an interview.

There was an exam with the staff development office covering drugs and drug calculation, I received a 70% and that is with having all the math questions right She told me they try to have the nurses score 80% before they begin work on the floor.

I have 2 weeks of classroom orientation and then she said I will be given the exam again but didn't say what would happen if I scored poorly again. I just feel so embarrassed and a little mad I have been out of school so long with no relevant experiences since I got out of school I have forgotten so much.

I guess the main thing I would like advice on right now is how can I study medications to learn the most common ones in a med/surg setting so I can feel more confident. It is going to be hard also because I have to travel 45 minutes to the hospital for training from 8 to 5 then I have my other job 7 to 11.
