   Athariel replied to Athariel's topic in General Students

8. HELP!!! I am a kinesthetic learner!

   Athariel replied to Ericak's topic in General Students

   I am somewhat similar. My notes are written/drawn in a sketchbook because that is how I learn. They would be of little help to anyone else. I tried a notebook but gave up on those years ago. And I...

9. My Grades Make Me Feel Sick.

   Athariel replied to ShadowsGirl101's topic in General Students

   Does your dad pay for school? If not, you are an adult and this doesn't concern him. I know that is easier said than done but part of growing up with some parents is getting them to recognize that you...

15. Can I succeed as a Nursing Student with Obsessive Thoughts

    Athariel replied to Athariel's topic in General Students

    I am discovering this to be the case. I am much better suited to being someone who takes orders and submits to a superior than taking the reins and running on my own. I can act on the fly but it is...
