What did I get myself into?

[agldragonRN]

hi,

okay i started my very last (lpn) class, peds, this january 2 (wednesday).

i've had 6 quizzes so far (1 for morning, and 1 in the afternoon), total of 40-50 qs per day. okay i am doing well so far because i am studying constantly. but my problem is

i have to constantly study for peds because i want to have high quiz average (90+) before going in the final, which is like 3 weeks away.

okay here is my problem. after the final, i have to take 4 exit exams in order for my school to send all my paper works for the nclex. but if i fail one exit, i would have to come back to school and do the 8-week review and take that particular test again and i would have to add 8 more weeks on each exit failure. okay all this exit exams would start the day after the final, one exit exam per day. so how am i supposed to study/review for all four exits when i am concentrating on my peds class now? i am so overwhelmed!!

these are the exits i have to take:

• growth & development (55 qs)
  
• pharmacology (80 qs)
  
• nln assessment (like nclex) (200 qs, paper test)
  
• arrnet (adaptive, like nclex on the computer)

in addition to all this hectic things i have to do, my program coordinator just told us yesterday that the board would make the nclex harder starting april 1, 2008 because apparently, a lot of people are passing, so i have to pass my nclex-pn before that. ay yay yay, what did i get myself into?

please tell me there is a light after the tunnel.

thanks for letting me vent!
