Hardest Medsurg 2. Easiest was fundamentals. I prayed and studies to get through nursing school. It never failed me.

Political and Social Perspectives in Nursing was easy.

I attended class only to participate in our group debate project. I did not read any of the assigned weekly readings until the week prior to the final exam. Got an A in the course.

Anatomy and Physiology was a lot of work, but I enjoyed the material and attended every class to get my A.

Whatever med/surg class had neuro in it. Probably two. God, I hate Neuro.

My first placement was probably the hardest obstacle to overcome considering that it was predominantly CNA related stuff. My placements progressively became easier because I actually took interest in them. The theory was time consuming, but not anything I would consider to be difficult.

Pharmacology- hardest. Everything else was aiight.

Pharm. I memorized for the test. Forgot completely after. Still look up everything.

I had a pretty solid study group in school and I am also a clutch test taker.

Yeah, pharm was the hardest for me because it required rote memorization. You just have to know the material, period. Pathophys is complicated, but if you understand the normal then you can reason it out.

I didn't have trouble with any of the theory classes... I had a leadership class that was so easy they started taking attendance halfway through because no one showed up.

Pharm. I can't remember dosages.

Because they were out leading people?

Easiest for me was fundamentals because it was basic material plus it was my first term so I was excited and studied a lot! Hardest was pediatrics for me because kids disease process and medications and such are more complex! Even communication has to be different which made it difficult. Love kids but it was tough!

That was my toughest clinical rotation, but the material was interesting.

Yep... we led them across the bridge to La Bamba's for happy hour margaritas. A good leader knows when to let his people relax. Or something. :)
