Share your tips, I'm a 28 year old mom of two boys and I have maintained a 4.0gpa. I have one class left to take before I apply to the BSN program. I'll share what I've learned.

1. Choose good professors--- I use ratemyprofessor.com

2. Read the syllabus, highlight the important stuff--- It usually tell you exactly what to study and how to get an A.

3. Invest in a laminator--- Use for anatomy classes. It helps to memorize if you can write directly on the body part over and over again.

Record lectures if you're allowed. I don't take notes really during class, I sit and listen. Then I go home and the next day I will listen to the lecture again and then Take notes on the power point. It really dives the points home

DO YOUR READING! You're not just in nursing school to pass a test, you're there to be a good nurse and to save lives. Sure, a lot of people don't read their books, but I promise you, it will help!
