1) Get a calendar: do NOT write down due dates, write when you are going to do them (ideally before the due date :D)
2) Ask plenty of questions (when appropriate)
3) It's okay to not get all A's, focus on passing...
4) You can totally work during school, it's all time management. Procrastination is a product of too much free time.
5) Nursing school isn't a test of intelligence, it's a test of will.

I've been an RN for 31 years. ALWAYS introduce yourself and talk to your patients and let them know what you are doing BEFORE you do it. I have always done this. So many nurses get focused on what they are doing and do not talk to their patients. I had a colonoscopy 4 years ago and while one nurse was talking to me, this other RN grabbed my right hand and put in an IV without even saying a word to me. So many people go into nursing because it is a good job and not because they really care about others that much. When they took me into the room for the procedure, another nurse was injecting me with Versed, again without even telling me. I looked at her and asked her if she was giving me Versed, and she smiled, and said, "yes." Another thing to watch out for is bullying. There is a lot of this in the nursing profession. Stick up for yourself.

I've been working as a patient room cleaner for the last six months at the hospital here in my town. I think that this job has allowed me to see exactly what goes on behind the scenes. It made me see myself in that type of environment.

This was SOOO helpful and relieving to me. I just got accepted into a pre-nursing program at my dream college but I had so much anxiety about going into it but this video made me feel a lot better and I feel more confident going into the program next fall.

My high school let me shadow nurses at the hospital in the cardiology department for 10 weeks and it was amazing.

Great tips! I'll make sure to pay extra attention in my A&P classes! Do you have to recall as much information from microbiology as compared to A&P?

[ishotthemoon]

I'm in Anatomy/Physiology II now. Definitely going to study and not just memorize everything like I was before haha.

[socorrodalton]

Thank you for your insight! I really appreciated the reminder not to get discouraged based on other people's experiences :) It sounds so overwhelming sometimes .. it can make you 2nd guess if you can really do it! so it's nice to hear a positive motivating spin on things!

I've passed anatomy and microbiology but physiology is killing me I wish I would have gotten the 9am instead of the 7am my sleep schedule is destroyed and I'm really burnt

[WellnOften]

Got my like!! You are literally the FIRST person in hundreds of nurse videos I've watched that has not described nursing school as "horrifying" "overwhelming" "worst experience of my life" and posting pictures of you crying.
So thank you because I actually am not that worried about nursing school and I'm excited I can't wait for all the content
