I spent hours studying yesterday. 45 pages to the electrolyte chapter and 8 chapters on our first Med Surg exam 13 days from now. That’s just 1 class. My family wondered why I was gone so long yesterday. I wonder why….. I can’t study much at home; I’m too distracted, and I don’t have the right mind set. I leave the house to “get something done.”
Every day I do more Nclex practice questions. That’s what will be used for the board exam. After this Labor Day weekend my time will be even more valuable, and my situation more serious. I don’t want to get behind or overwhelmed, but it’s nursing school. I have always said nursing school is like shooting yourself with a taser, you don’t know what to expect the first time, but you sure don’t want to do it the second time. Maybe those who go straight through it don’t have that issue, but I’ve been out of a program for some time now and was not looking forward to going back.
