Anyone heard of/know of any tips and/or study techniques on how to pass psych (--------------------) class? I hear her exams are hard.

Good luck! I failed her component. And I am a straight A student...it was a blow to ego for sure! I studied her notes like everyone said...did a millions of nclex questions from Lippincott...I missed passing by 2 points. Psych is just hard, its a lot of gray area...its not like med-surge, where there are definitive answers. She didn't lecture on Chemical Dependency or Anxiety disorders for our last exam...didn't even get a breeze!

sheirry, I sent you a PM.
some of the students didn't study at all and passed her first exam. i'm so confused. i bombed it and studied like crazy.
I'm starting to think students like you and I overstudy and overanalyze certain exams. I have classmates who don't take notes, don't have textbooks, and STILL passed her exam!! lol

Yeah I know people that did great in her class and then are having a hard time in OB! I did great in OB...but I still studied, used my book and did nclex questions. I wish I was just one of those people who didn't have to study...Hopefully it will work to my advantage when it comes to the NCLEX after we graduate!
