Clinicals are easy! The exams are what you should worry about so take the advise from this thread and practice NCLEX questions. Saunders is a great way to get a good start. My advice learn how to deal with stress because it will happen. Get some stress relieving tips- sometimes it's the anxiety that gets you not your knowledge.

I totally understand you greengirl. I struggled in my fundamentals class because my professor will pull questions out of her butt and it's like when did we learn this?? My professor gave us way too much information and would trick us on the exam. Funny thing she even admitted it.wth! I did everything, nclex questions, used the saunders book but it wasn't enough and as time went lost my confidence and tried to survive. But at least I know I'm not a bad student, will move on, study harder and hope I don't have her as a professor again.

Your parents sound like mine! My mom acts the same way and I react with anger. No peace in my parents house but now I'm out and at peace. Get out of there if you can because you can't change her but you can change yourself. I know money can be tight but you can't succeed when you're depressed. Chemistry is tough, I went to tutoring 2 times a week to pass that class. But it took hard work. You sound discouraged but you can do it.

Hi Esme12 I'm curious, how did you work night and still take care of your children? When did you sleep during the day? I'm a nursing student so I don't know of these things

Get tutoring if your school offers some. They would teach you how to study for this difficult class.

Thank you

How did you pass the NCLEX RN? What resources did you use?

Congratulations

Get a tutor! They are very helpful. Also they teach you how to study

You are not alone. I got my bachelors degree in Education and decided to go back to school for nursing. I got into a program and I'm so excited it doesn't matter what my past is. We got to move on.
