Working while in school

[NursieGemma]

i'm currently employed at an auto insurance firm full time as a claims processor. i need to stay working to keep my truck and the bill collectors at bay. how do you all handle working full-time day time and attending clinicals. i'm a little confused about that. i know my lecture classes can be taken evening, but how do the clinicals work. i'll be starting my first semester of the nursing program in the fall, and i don't want to have major conflicts. can anyone offer advise?

The college I am starting offer clinicals 8am-4pm every on saturdays for the evening/weekend students. The lectures are done twice a week. You can take either full time weekdays or f/t evenings/weekends. Very accomodating since I do work fulltime on weekdays.

time management is the key! shave off some work hours so u can still have some money and allocate a great deal of time for studying (u will need to do it, trust me) get everybody u know to help u, even borrow money. i'd say u will only have to do this for about a year, the last 2 semesters are usually the most toxic! any way u choose to, u will have to sacrifice a big chunk of time for studying. like everybody else said, u cant study for an exam 2 days prior. if u study like that anyway, the chances of u remembering the stuff u studied a week after is none. think positively and tell urself u can do this. goodluck!:)
