Med-Surg

I don't know. I didn't mind med-surg but I think you just gotta try and understand the processes and patho. because if you know that then you'll know what assessment findings you'll have and then you'll know appropriate nursing interventions. Practice questions always help me and a lot of classmates used Davis's Med-Surg Success book and really found it helpful. I also used to make little disease maps and that would really help me sort things out in my mind.

What helps me is reading the material and finding someone either another nursing student, a boyfriend, mother, etc and explaining it to them. I find that when I explain something to someone elseit kind of cements the material. And eventually you'll be describing patho to patients so think of ways you can explain it to them as well. It helps to break down the aspects and put it together in your head.

Also google youtube videos about people describing it or try other books to see if they explain things in a way you can understand.

just took my medsurg final do idk if my study tips actually worked yet but do a ton of practice questions!! thousands and thousands whenever you can and read the rationales for the ones you get wrong. not only are you studying the content you are getting better at really understanding the question and how they ask it... good luck!
