Thank you so much! I really appreciate it :)

Does anyone have any tips for studying for pathophysiology and pharmacology? I have made flashcards, read the chapters, studied with a partner, etc. My last test I earned a 77.5% on it which is JUST passing in my nursing program.

I know exactly how you feel! I've tried studying with groups and the schedules don't align to make it work. A useful strategy that one of my professors taught me was a teach-back method. Which is simply, learning the material then teaching it to someone. Not only do you gain more knowledge, you teach someone else something and they have an opportunity to ask questions which further expands your understanding. Things will get better for you, I promise!

If an emoji could depict how I feel about my grade in Pathophysiology and Pharmacology it would be this one: I read the chapters, participate in class, study with a partner, and attend our Supplemental Instructor sessions, and think I understand the information until the test or quiz is placed in front of me. This is my first semester in the program so I am new when it comes to critical-thinking style questions. Does anyone have any study or note taking tips or advice that could possibly help me here? I would greatly appreciate it!
