I’m taking nursing 18 now. Has anyone who has taken the AP test have any helpful tips (like know of books or stuff to study with) ? Would I study stuff for HESI A2?

I used Saunders

I looked at the schedule and I am about to quit.

Can you please tell me the schedule that you have?

I have a child and I am really freaking out about all that

Also, are you, guys allowed to choose your own hospital you want to do clinical in?

But that is the first semester only, right?

I looked at the last semester classes and there are clinicals which last for 12 hours. One was starting at 7 am and finishing at 730 pm.

then there was another week, that started at 3pm I believe and finished at 1130 pm. That is almost midnight! Are we planning to stay in the hospital all this time?I am so confused now
