So i just finished my first semester today and as much as i want to sit back and do nothing for 3 weeks i feel i need to stay on top of it! How many of you cracked a book during vacation?

How do you know what to study? Also, Give yourself a darn break before you snap.

My professors are posting reading assignments dr next sememster. I'm giving myself a solid week or two to chill though. I have four weeks off. But since I'm taking med-surg next semester I'm going to brush up on my weak areas in anatomy I have a feeling I may need to remember.

I am a new nursing student to, and my professors has also sent out emails for us to do assignment and read several chapters. I have one more exam to do for microbiology and then I will be done for the semester. I'm beginning to feel a bit overwhelmed with everything that's going on. I'm just going to chill for a bit I have a planner so I will plan out how I will execute reading the assignments before class, and just relax with my family because I know that starting January my life is over ha ha.

Mine also. I'll hit the books again after New Year's.

I am taking a full week off to decompress, but we have several chapters to read and a case study to do before the first day. At least I get to spread the work out over a couple of weeks, so I won't have to stress about it too much.

I crack my books during break. Nothing hardcore, but I do read, and I generally like the material, so it isn't a huge deal. Anything more than light reading and I end up screwing myself - if I do things TOO early, I forget everything by the time I actually need it.
Just keeps me that much farther ahead once the semester is in full swing!
