Succeeding in An Accelerated Program

Greetings Everyone,

I'm a first semester LPN student beginning an accelerated program. Not only is the program 12 months long, but the instructors opted to make the course load "front heavy." In other words, placing course material heavily towards the beginning of the semester so that more time can be allocated to clinical later in the semester. I'm honestly struggling to cover enough ground in my studies. Even when I'm able to read the required material, I can't do so in a fashion which I consolidate the content to memory. Please, if anyone has suggestions for strategies for prioritization  success I'm all ears.

    Hello there! I'm an older student who will be finishing up an LPN program by the end of April. The accelerated nature is tough, and more so for me than the last time in school. I'm not sure if you are able to cut work hours, but I needed to , and hence taje out a loan, but it will be worth it to pass to NCLEX-PN, and will be able to pay it down once working as a nurse. The other thing that helps is taking many 5 minute breaks and walking around to increase my O2 saturation, which in turn helped me with retention ! Good luck to you! You can do it!
