Stressed student needs guidance

Published

Hi, it's only my 3rd week of the ADN program, and it already feels like 3 months.

I've been studying all day and night since school started and need guidance for having pharmacology, fundamentals of nursing, Roy Adaptation model and clinicals all crammed into 8 weeks.

There's so much to read and they expect you to read before class starts when you have to prepare for exams every week.

I have a study group, but feel it's not enough. I want to know how to study and get through these crucial 8 weeks. Help.

Thanks :cry:

I agree with what has been said before and let me add.. don't procrastinate! Get things done asap. Trying to stay atop the material will be hard, but projects and papers, try to get those done asap.

Also, make mnemonics of everything to help you study. Kinda like the bones-of-the-body song. Some of the ones I've been taught are funny, "R" rated, and some only make sense to those that made em.

So, stay focused, breath, find your rhythm, and don't forget to dance in the rain.
