Hi Thanks for the reply. I know what you mean by the study load being a bit overwhelming and thats what you get stuck on. BUt i think i have managed to mave some progress yeah. I posted a short forum within my group and i guess im not the only one that is feeling it. Funny thing is just knowing that im not the only one has helped me see a bit clearer, plus i had help from my sister who is almost finished her RN course. And i have submitted my first assessment item and sat my first formal quiz. not bad all in 2 days. I must admit it alot harder studing this way than what i thought it would be.
