Best way to study from PowerPoints??
i do the same. memorize the powerpoints like the lines to a play. word for word. i always get the book, but pull A's just studying the notes.

10 Years, Burned Out!
i use to feel the same. after 12 years wasnt sure this was what i wanted to be doing anymore. decided to go back to school and recently finished all my prereqs for the rn prgm. through that whole process, especially when taking the sciences, i began to feel rejuvenated and to this day crave to learn more about the medical field, regulations, policy and procedures, anatomy and physiology, cells, dna, etc... recently ive been going over title 22 regs, cdc recommendations, and state surveys. i just think the whole thing is cool now. i never really cared to much about it in the past but school kinda put that spark in me again. thats my expierence anyway, you may find the same to be true for you aswell. give it a chance.
