UGH!!...

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

Any advice from you guys on how to stay focused and push through with these Pre-Req courses? I know we need them but do we really need to know all this for nursing!? Maybe just a bad day, IDK...:hdvwl:

I'm finishing up the last of my pre-req's this semester....I start Nursing school in Jan. When I was at the beginning of my pre-req stuff, I didn't even think about Nursing b/c it would have driven me crazy. My way of dealing with it was to try and get an A in every class so that I would be able to get in the program no problem. Focusing on acing each course kept me too busy to think about nursing, lol. Hang in there.:D I hated psych II, and History was a bear!

Specializes in Hospice & Palliative Care, Oncology, M/S.

I know it's hard...

When I had a really rough time with a subject, I would imagine the day I would graduate with my BSN. I would try to feel the pride and joy throughout, and that would get me through a tough exam or boring week.

I am still doing that :)

I have made a list of every single class I needed to take for each semester, mapped out exactly what was going to be happening (worked well with my OCD tendencies, LOL) and it's nice to check them off as I go along. If you look at my earlier posts, you can see it.

This semester is really hard since I am SO SICK of school. This is the last semester of nursing pre-req's so I'm really antsy. You can do it though! It will be so worth it in the end, and be sure to work for A's!

Ugh is right! The worst part for me is that I've already taken every pre-requisite that I needed, but I have to take them all over again because they're more than 10 years old. Talk about trying to stay focused. Just look at the end result!
