This is great advice, thank you!

I became fairly comfortable with this method throughout my Chemistry classes. I'll definitely practice some more. Thanks for the tip!

Thank you for the helpful advice! I've started reviewing dosage calculations from RegisteredNurseRN on Youtube and I do have a few fun things planned before the start of the program. Do you have any recommendations on resources for med math?

Great advice, thank you! I couldn't agree more with your suggestion to take care of some of the stuff that I've been pushing off around the house and I definitely plan to spend time with family and friends. I hadn't considered a reading skill assessment, but I think that it's a good idea. I appreciate you sharing the video. I started watching and made it to the section on studying as if you have to teach the material to others. Fantastic lecture, I've saved it to finish watching later. Thanks again for commenting!

Thanks for the share on the NCLEX-RN questions, I'm going to look into these. Congrats to you both on getting into your programs! I completed my prerequisites over the last year or so and now that I do not have much to do until Summer I am trying to figure out how to spend the time while making sure that I am as prepared as possible. I did not think that I would but I also miss classes. I'm eager to get started. Best of luck to you!

Hi everyone, My question is-What should I do/study before the start of my nursing program? I understand that I will not be expected to know what I haven't learned yet. I'm just thinking with the free time I have now, it couldn't hurt to jump start my learning. The program begins in about 4 months and will last 16 months (four semesters, I've attached a screen shot of the Summer plan). I have plans to relax and take a few small trips, but I want to be prepared to hit the ground running. For example, I've read that it may be helpful to master dosage calculations before starting. I've also heard that Mosby's Pharmacology Memory Notecards are useful, if anyone has experience with those or something similar. What did you do prior to the start of your program? Would you do anything differently? Any advice or recommendations on resources or materials is appreciated. Thank you!
