I am planning on continuing my education until I reach NP. I wanted to know from all nurses if you can give me any advice on how to be a oustanding student and organanized student? Also tips on just staying focus as a whole? If you are a student please let me know how it is going and what are some do's and dont's and how I can apply this to nursing school! Thanks!

    I am a LPN student in CA, I'd say

    Do: *study either alone or as a group

    *take it seriously

    *ask questions, if you feel lost

    * get the saunders book (study ahead, I heard they added more Pharm to the NCLEX)

    Don't: * stress

    * put off studying till the last minute

    I'd say that so far in my program, I'm over 1/2 way completed, that I have learned a lot and am retaining quite a bit more because of the hands on experiences to go with the in class information.

    and most of all DON'T stop there.. use LPN as a stepping stone to get to NP, I have the same goal!!

    No matter how hard it gets, how frustrated you feel, NEVER give up. Make time to study, make time to play. Balance is important. Best Wishes.

    or LPN to BSN and BSN to MSN to NP cert.

    My list:

    Do pray

    Do have a study partner

    Do show to every lecture

    Do meet with instructors for guidance

    Don't be late for clinical

    Don't participate in gossip

    Don't not take time for yourself, family and friends. :D:D:D
