Overwhelmed and Scared

Published

Hello All!

I am currently taking A & P II and Pharmacology this semester and I am starting to wonder if my brain can hold any more information. These are my last two classes that I can take while waiting for my invitation in the RN program, and I am to a point that I feel like my brain is purging information that I learned in earlier classes to make room for the new stuff. This is so bad. I am generally an A student, so I did well in the previous classes but I don't think that I can remember everything. And my pharmacology class is just a joke. It is online and very intimidating, very little teacher interaction and lots of homework that I really don't get. I basically look up the answers in my drug reference guide and the text and I get good marks on the assignments but I am not retaining/learning anything. And the quizes are online too which leads to me checking my work and looking up the right answers, which makes me feel like a big fat cheater! How am I going to make it in the nursing program when my memory is on sabbatical :(

Very frustrating :cry: Any advice appreciated.

Trust me, you are not the only one who ever felt this way. I remember half way through A&P II, I told my husband that I was pretty sure that there was no more room in my brain...that not one more piece of information would fit in there! But suprisingly after a mental break from studying, regrouping, and carrying on, I finished the class with an A. Don't worry, you can do it!
