Planners for nursing school

Published

What type of planners do you prefer to keep organized? I do use my computer but still like to write things out. Something with big spaces that can keep track of assignments, clinical info etc..

Thanks!

Hello! I am currently a nursing student and I just completed my first semester. Before I started, I was tempted to buy an Erin Condren planner. I just couldn't justify spending the $$. I ended up getting one from amazon for about $8. It works great and really helps me stay organized.

I use this: The Black & Gold leather-bound one. Calendar Planners — Eccolo Ltd.

I'm slightly obsessed with my planner. It spans from July 2016 to January 2018. The front is the calendar format, with each month taking up two pages, so the boxes are large enough to actually fit things into and it has a little notes column to the right side. The back is the Daily/Weekly breakdown. On the left-hand side it gives you pretty large boxes for each day (Monday-Sunday.) On the right-hand side it gives you a notes section and then a bulleted To-Do List.

I use the calendar view in the front to keep track of big things like exams, appointments, birthdays, my work schedule, and any other important information I need to glance at. I use the daily/weekly section for specific information on assignments, class times, etc. I block off two hours a month to prepare the next month's calendar section and then just fill things in as they come up. As for the daily/weekly section... I use that pretty much daily to mark things off and keep myself on pace.

I hope you find something that works for you, OP! If you need any suggestions for cool journal decorating accessories, I'm your girl!
