Also how do/did you organize your flashcards?

[NurseEmmy]

My most useful nursing school supply has been highlighters.. I use those suckers a lot. Get a variety of colors. I organize my flash cards based on the subject: meds, diseases/disorders, treatments, lab values, etc.

So far, my biggest help has been PowerPoint. My instructors have coincided their lectures and power point with each unit. Huge help to be able to listen to the lecture and follow along with the slides at home!!
