    HammockBound replied to Idiosyncratic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just labeled diagrams and then drew my own at least 3 times. I ended up studying in 20 min. bursts...and did great. It is just repetition. Maybe learn all the face first then the outer, then switch...

    HammockBound replied to lpn954's topic in Florida Nursing

    HammockBound replied to kingvonnBSN2017's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    HammockBound replied to RHill9919's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    HammockBound replied to Wannabeeinscrubs's topic in General Students

  17. How early would you say to start studying?

    HammockBound replied to Idiosyncratic's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I think it was pretty general. I think 2-3 weeks everyday or every few days is more then enough. I would take it right after ant. 2 so everything is fresh in your mind. The ati book had a lot of...

    HammockBound replied to HammockBound's topic in TEAS Exam Help
