Who started studying yet?

Published

I know most of you are getting ready to start school in a week or 2. I was just wondering who has started studying in advance. I told myself I was going to study in advance but it has not happened yet and I start on Monday. shame on me lol! hope it does not bite me in the butt with the two biology classes I have to take.

@zoe! Good luck on the HESI!

I don't go back to school until Fall 2013 because out of state tuition rates in FL are so high :( But I have been studying my cliffnotes biology because it will be on the hesi so I am trying to store it in my long term memory. I've been making powerpoints of every chapter and getting pictures online to help. Then I will do the same with my a&p for dummies book. I am thinking that when I am done with that I may buy one for micro and stats. I just want to have the basic knowledge so when I take the classes and get more in depth it wont be ovewhelming.

Well, my classes started last Thursday, so I guess that means I have to study. :rolleyes:

I am and I'm not, I have my TEAS test next Friday so I've been studying for that. I have A&P 102 this spring semester so I read a little bit in a few chapters to prepare for the TEAS but that's about it. I wanted to do more but I'm just far too stressed for this TEAS test. Ugh I just can't wait to get it over with at this point.

I took the TEAS today and passed the requirements of the nursing program I'm applying to. It went much better than I thought it would. I'm sure you'll do great! :up:

I got a Micro book on my Kindle and started reading it. But I got slowed down by the holidays and getting sick. Ugh. I haven't gotten my textbooks yet. I will get them this week and start studying. Classes start 1/29 for me.

Not me lol. I'm enjoying the last week of my winter break before my classes start on the 22nd. I'll have plenty studying to do once classes begin, so I plan to enjoy the last of my time off while I still can (because once classes begin, I'll be begging for a vacation, lol).[/quote']

Fourth this. I've been catching up with everything else I've put off since fall semester started...

I'm a total nerd...I've already started on my course work for this semester. We start tomorrow and I've done the first chapter of Stats already. I just like to stay ahead so it doesn't feel like I have to work as hard once the semester starts. Luckily, most of our profs posted the syllabus for each course before last semester ended, so it's easy to get a jump start :)

I didn't do any studying for upcoming classes between semesters because I honestly needed the mental break. After spring A&P I, summer A&P II, and fall microbiology, I was burnt. However, I did start reviewing information for the Kaplan entrance exam I'll have to take in March to get into my program.

HA I had this huge plan of how I was going to really review everything from Med-Surg I (I'm going into my final semester) and start reading early... school starts next week and I have yet to crack open a book!! I am determined to read at least what I need to for next week so here's hoping that gets done :) it has been a wonderful break!!!! Much needed!!!

I did start studying, but it was more to feel like I have caught up in order to take college algebra since it has been a long time since I have been in a math class. I have not opened a book in about week and I might just take the rest of this week off - next Tuesday will be here soon enough. I have not even looked at my nutrition book except to put it in a binder. The math books are just not fun like my A&P and micro books to study in advance!;)
