I'm not even in nursing school and I already feel tired from reading my Patho book.
We have to read ch. 2,4, 6, 10, and 11, and know 9 disease sections from the book. I don't know if I'm freaking out or what, but ch. 10 and 11 have to do with Cancer and Oncology and both are within 32-34 pages each. My brain is fried from reading ch. 10 (32 pg). I've got my first exam on Tuesday. Their grading criteria is "If you can't pass the tests with at least a 75% twice, you cannot apply to our program". This class is a pre-req. With the content like it is, I don't think my brain wants to read anymore. I'm probably behind in readings and I didn't realize how fast it caught up, but wow I'm so exhausted from reading. Being in a study group I think is also exhausting.
We use power points in class, but I think the teacher wants us to read the book too, but 32 pages is brutal and I don't know what is necessary and what's not. I don't have a clue if I want to be a nurse anymore. It's a profession that people can't get into even if they wanted it.
