I am in the ADN program, fourth semester and I couldn't connect with OB. I did not do so great on those tests. Peds is so much better I am passing those test, it seems more like med surg but you have to tweak it some because it's care for a child. For me OB was difficult because you are taking care of two people and what you do to mom affects baby and what you do to baby affects mom. I had a baby so I thought this was going to be a no brainer. All I can tell you is try a new study plan and keep pushing to the end.Do a lot of practice nclex questions daily. Find out who in your class got A's on their test and study with them if you can, that helped me a lot. Good luck you can do it, do what ever it takes to make it to graduation.

Hi! I'm in the last semester of my LPN program and I'm currently taking a Maternal child nursing class. I have failed the first 2 exams and I have felt extremely prepared for both. I have NO idea what else i can do to help me pass! I read the power points and my professors notes read the chapters in the book, and watch any youtube video I can to visually see what we are learning about. I have also talked to my professor and she told me "its not uncommon for students to fail her first 3 exams". I can't afford to fail, I'm so close to graduating. Any advice and tips/tricks to passing Maternity & PEDS would be greatly appreciated! THANK YOU!! :)[/quote']
Maybe you need to pick up and or borrow an nclex book that has maternity & peds questions such as exam cram and or Lippincotts nclex review pn good luck.
