Blessed S.N.23

I start my second semester 2moro! Im really excited and kind of nervous but prepared!! I have 4 more semesters down to go!

Im in the BSN program also and its alot of work!! It will be okay! Hang in there! I know how u feel! Nursing is Hard but u can survive and get through it! I struggled my first semester but made a B average despite my test anxiety and nervousness! Its completely normal but i had to study my butt off in order to feel more cofident and pass my classes. Im now in my second semester and have learned so much from the last. Nursing is a skill and you have to keep building your foundation and working your way up! You will get there! I wish you the best of luck!

Go with your gut and do whats best for you!!! Dont listen to anyone's negative comments or anything that will distract you from your dreams! Im 24 and in my second semester of Nursing school and i love it! I knew from the start i was meant to be a nurse regardlessof what my peers thought or said!! Nursing is a wonderful profession to go into and is very rewarding! If Nursing is what you want to do then there u go! You seem like you're heading in the right direction! Just keep a strong mind and stay focused and you will be absolutely fine! Good Luck and i wish you the best!

Yes its totally normal!! I was like that when i started my first semester and im like that now going into my second semster! I start next week also but im prepared and ready! I've learned alot last semester and now know what to expect so my nervousness should hopefully go away! Good Luck!;)

Although we all study differently some tips i would suggest would be 1st: stay organized and always prepared! 2nd: flashcards are an excellent way to generalize and memorize material definately if your a visual learner like me! 3rd: studyiing in groups seems to be more effective and helps you to get better understanding of the material sometimes! 4th: I use a memo board also to map any conceptual ideas i get and is very helpful! hope i helped! Good Luck this semester!

Me too! I will be in the library more this time around!

working out is on my list also! i promised myself that i would make time for that this semster!

I can relate! I feel like last semester made me strong and ready to approach 2nd semester differently!

same here! i promised myself i would not procrastinate or wait to the very last minute to do anything!!

thats how i view it also!! this semester will go by fast!

You made it this far so you'll definately be fine!! Good Luck on ur last semester of Nursing school!

I start Next week and im ready for this semester and im kinda excited! I have 4 more semesters to go and im done which will be here in no time it seems!!

Although last semester was kinda rough with it being my first semester of nursing school im extremly excited and proud to enter my second semester with 4 more down to go!! Its going by kind of fast to me which is a great thing! Anyone else in their second semester? Is there anything you would change this time around?!

Congrats!!!!! Im really happy for you!! I know youre really excited!!

Congrats!!!! Its the best feeling ever!!

Sounds like you suffer from Test Anxiety!! Just stay calm and remain positive with the right attitude during the exams! If you dont calm down and are anxious you wont perform as well as you should! Look online for test strategies and test anxiety tips to calm your nerves so you can do good on exams!! Good Luck!

In my program (BSN) we are required to be dressed in our uniforms and abide by the dress code written in our student hand book!

You will be fine! B's are just as good as A's!! Once u get into nursing school trust me you will soon appreciate getting B's!! I think you will get in tho! Good Luck!

Congrats!!! Im also in my first year of Nursing School (BSN) and it rocks!!! Welcome to the world of student nurses!!! YAY!

Congrats!!! Im in my first year of my Bsn Program and it rocks!!

All i want to say is STAY STRONG AND YOU CANT DO IT!!! Im only in my first year of Nursing School(BSN) and i have a hard time but I encourage myself and know i've came far and I can do it!! I have friends who are in the ADN program and who have a really tough time in med-surg! It definately takes some hard work and dedication and thats how there making it right now! Good Luck! Remember dont give up! U can do this!:)

Im going thru the exact same thing! I feel im to anxious and i just dont know how to control it! All i do is pray for everything to get better because its an uneasy feeling that i want to go away!!!

I cant seem to calm down when im taking test! I know the material but i freak out! This causes me to do bad on my test! I know im capable of the work but my confidence goes down hill and i start doubting myself! What should I do?!

I would do both of them if i were you! Neither ceremonies wouldnt be a waste of time because its apart of your accomplishment of graduating from Nursing school! Just my opinion! :)

Thanks so much decembergrad2011!!! Your advice was extremely encouraging and so motivational! Thx for taking the time to read my post and give such inspirational words!!
