Well i'm still on Suzannes First tip. I'm on Cardiovascular right now and I feel like my brain's going into overload with all this information..How do you guys keep focus and actually read the entire book..I have like 300 pages more left but I feel so tired of studying right now..Care to share your daily routines? :banghead: :no:

I am in the same boat you are. I just started this week and I am having a REALLY hard time focusing and staying motivated to do this again after failing twice. :anbd: I am trying so hard to think of this as the first time, but it's really hard. Maybe we just need to encourage each other because we CAN do this. :icon_hug:I am praying for you and all of us for motivation to stay focused, the ability to remember & recall everything we read, and for peace to conquer all this stress we are feeling. :lttang: Good luck to you!!

Take breaks. I once heard that a human brain's ability to retain and comprehend information is reduced after 45 minutes of straight studying. take breaks, don't cram. In the mean time good luck and stay positive, I wish u both the best.

Thanks Luv' Well I'm happy to know that I'm not alone in this. I really just can't stop thinking about the Nclex even if I'm scheduled for September..I dream about what I read and in the back of my mind every time I sleep I just keep thinking about it..NO JOKE. It's just always there lingering in my mind..I get 4 hrs of sleep a day since I can't help but not study and hang on to that Saunder's Book, Just feels weird when I'm not holding it like somethings missing. Anyways thanks to you both, this forum is filled with awesome people! :redpinkhe :saint:

What I do is study about 2hrs a night and do about 2 chapters a day no more than 3hrs a night because I work all day and be exhausted half of the time. But guess what I study every day M-Fri because I have to do what I have to do. I just want things to better for all of us and move to the next level. I'm on Chapter 15 right now with 51 more Chapters to go so I know how you feel. :banghead:
