1. Figure out what type of learner you are 2. Get a planner 3. Focus on nursing management 4. What does your patient look like? 5. Learn to study alone 6. Use of flash cards 7. Record lectures
I found out I have ADD cause my nursing teacher thought I had it and I saw a psychiatrist and he put me on medication and what a big difference it made and instead of getting 70s I'm now getting 80s
I'm 55 years old and began my prerequisites for Nursing school in 2018. I just want to thank you for suggesting that it's okay to study by yourself. That's great for me because its easy to get off topic and forget the real purpose for the study group. I was also encouraged when you said to know what the illness/disease or problem looks like, to be able to treat the patient correctly! Great ideas!!!
Thank you so so so much 😃 I really needed to see this video. I am in the LPN to RN program too. I recently failed my 1st Med-Surg test and felt so overwhelmed, because I was wasted more time reading 3 chapters and less time studying. We also used the same book. Once again thank you so much.
Can you tell me about your prerequisite courses before getting in to nursing school what where grades like just trying to know what to aim for? Also did you take teas or Heisi how was it?
@@chinyerevwa2714 A&P 1&2, Microbiology, and Chemistry are some major classes and of course any classes that are required to get to those classes like intro to Biology for example. My school requires a C or better but the school I went to for LPN required a B or better for all science classes and if your science class we’re 5 or more years old you had to retake them 🤦🏾♀️ I refused to do that bc even though my A&P classes were past 5 years I had just finished microbiology with an A which is a higher level than A&P but they said I had to redo those class to get in the RN program. So I just went to a different school 😂 . I had to take the Teas test to get in the program I’m in now
I love the study tips. Keep them coming. I started the bridge program a few months ago and I just purchased a planner. I had a small planner, but I needed more room. Keep on succeeding!! We got this. RN.
Thank you and I never realized how much I needed a planner until I got into the bridge program smh I would have been way better prepared in the LPN program if I used my planner correctly 😂
I just watched your LPN to RN bridge study tips video. Thank you. I'm 58 years old and my class starts this September and you said everything that I needed to hear.
Thank you for sharing! It looks like you worked nights while in school. Any tips on getting rest and staying healthy while on the night shift? How was that? I think I’m going to have to do that. Just got accepted to a bridge program and most the classes are day.
Hi there. I also liked doing nclex questions that related to the topic I was studying.. even though I didn't fully understand at that time the rationale for getting them right or wrong at the beginning this helped big time. I find that the questions were very similar to not only exam questions but it made actually taking the nclex a breeze. Passed my exam on the 1st try cut off I belive was 76 questions 😅. I was the type to study alone. I get too distracted in a study group... I also did the flash card thing... flash cards for everything... I did however read the chapters when I had the time after focusing on what the teacher taught on in my spare time. There's no point in reading things before class really because the teacher may just pass over that topic all together. That's where my nclex questions come into play because it covered topics that may not have been covered. So I by the end of my nursing program was doing up to 200 nclex questions daily. Yes, it seems like alot but it helped big time! Time management Is a biggie for me. I never used the planner but I'm sure my life would have been a lot eiser. I would also recommend no extra relationships if that can be helped because alot of times friends ect don't understand that you must study 😉 I had to sacrifice fun time, movie time ect to get that study in. I belive that anyone can be successful! Just put in that work. Oh and I had every nclex book under the sun, nclex app ect. So if I was at work or whatever I had that app open doing those questions. I pretty much totally submerged myself in everything nursing smh. I came up for air just for work and for physical exercise which made a huge difference too.
Thank you for this! Out of all the videos I've watched, this one has the best tips for nursing school. I just have a question. I'm not sure if you used this book, but In the Saunders NCLEX-RN book, it sections the diseases as 'Description', 'Types', 'Assessment', and 'Intervention.' In this case, would Nurse Management be under 'Interventions'?
Great video, wat u said was true … study groups are good some of the time. Flash cards are truly meant to be short simple and sweet. You should do a NCLEX question 🙋🏾♀️ video.
@@ThatGirlHillyy OMG YESSSS. I wish i would have know this in LPN school. I would have been way less stressed. I didn't figure some of this stuff til the end of the LPN program and my classmates was looking at me like how are you killing these test like this lol and i got my planner from walmart. You can go to any book store for one as well and you can always go to target!
Faces by Frankie thank you so much! I’m so excited and (mostly) terrified at the same time. I already bought my book bag and making a list of stuff to buy lol. I don’t want to fail any test or quiz (by Gods grace) cause that will kill me lol. I’ve honestly haven’t really study while in high school or college for a test, I would just wing it lol. Until it was time for the teas test and I realized I have to study and what type of learner I am (a mixture but mostly visual). Thank you so much! I’m shooting for A’s for the whole program 🙏🏾
That’s funny you asked did we really know what type of learner we are? So I stopped the video and went a took a test and I was absolutely wrong. I had no clue I was an auditory learner. Thanks for that.
Is “Nursing Mgmt” the same as Nursing Interventions? I’m in an LPN program and would love to be able to apply your tips to my studying. I just don’t want to mess up & want to be sure I study the right info. I’ve spent many hours studying and I want to get the most out of it instead of over studying.
Interventions are treating the problem and Mgmt is maintaning their health and safety.... For example if someone comes in with high blood sugars your intervention would be giving insulin... if a patient comes in with a low platelet count then your nursing mgmt would be making sure not to give injections or apply pressure to site for 5 + mins bc they may bleed out. Be aware that sometimes they will combine the 2.. Hope this helps
