- Today's video is all about how I study to pass my nursing school exams! While they are not easy, these tips can help you succeed. As a senior in my nursing program I think I finally have it (somewhat) figured out. I take you through how I take notes, study with friends, apps I use, and practice questions to help you succeed.

THANK YOU SO MUCH - this is by far one of the most comprehensive videos.
Thank you so
Much for this video! I am currently taking pharm and it is a lot of information. My brain isn’t used to this. I feel encouraged and also glad I found your channel. This is my first time watching and I am subscribing!
I loved this video! Can you do a video of you actually taking your notes ? Like a study with me, where you go through writing them and how you color code them ?
Thank you!!🥰 and absolutely!! I will add it into today’s vlog I’m filming ✨
I was thinking the same. Thanks Paige
@@luv.monique8372 Of course!! ✨🤍
girl spot on’
@@paigehoagland286 thank you soo much !!
Good advice, doing sumtin similar. Bought some books off Amazon, doing some practice Qs to cement the info I learned, and a study group once a week. Plus a white board helped me out at home
This was so helpful! Thank you
This is SO HELPFUL!!
Yay! Glad I could help ☺️
Definitely going to be using some of these tips!!
🤍
Writing helps me so much too, and acronyms .
thank u so much for making this video! i am taking science prereqs and there are so many concepts to learn and understand. this video is really helpful!
You’re so welcome!! Those prereqs can be sooo hard (especially chem for me). Just try your best and don’t be afraid to find a tutor if you need to/if your program offers them. I got one for chem and it helped so much!! 💕☺️
@@paigehoagland286 lol im taking chem right now! you’re right! it is difficult! 😭😭😭😭 do you actually use chemistry in nursing? if so, like in what way?🥺✨
@@vheymoon Sooo hard! and nope not that I've noticed at all hahahah. If anything at all I just use dimensional analysis to do med math and I learned that in chem but its not directly related to nursing at all. Basically just get through the class and then you're done and its so nice when you start classes where you can just focus on actual nursing material that you'll use in the clinical setting! :)
@@paigehoagland286 ah we actually just had an entire exam on dimensional analysis! it does seem important to learn and know
@@vheymoon yes it is! It makes med math so much easier !!
I have picmonic and didn't know it had all those features thanks for video
omg im just about to start studying for my exams and I have been using notability all year and never knew to just write straight on the powerpoint, Thankyou!
Omg yes such a timesaver!!!
Thanks for the tips! I’m in block 2 for my LPN and am going to use this for my quizzes! ~Dayna 🤩
I loved your colors! it helps me to. I am trying to set up a study group for my psych class. Do they help?
thank you!
What iPad do you have? I’ve got the iPad Air 4th generation and I’m looking for the keyboard with trackpad. Thanks for your video
Can you do a video on how you use and import stuff to your notability?
Absolutely!! ☺️
I wonder where do u keep the notes? In ipad storage or in cloud ?
This was very thankful! I am finishing my first semester in nursing school and I’m so glad I ran into your video 🫶🏼 thank you so much for the great tips!!
What is the I pad your using?
How do you figure out what would be on the exam and what wouldn’t to shorten your notes?
What app do you to keep you notes
Hello Paige! First I want to thank you for this video. I am getting a second chance in nursing school with a different college, because my previous one didn't care about the students who needed help the most and just keep the ones that make them look good so that they can keep their accreditation. Their lecture instructors don't teach at all, and when I did med Surg 1 that teacher just kept reading word for word from 100+ slides, instead of giving a summary and explaining the material better. For someone like me who has never been in a nursing setting, their teaching style at that school never worked for me. But I do have a quick question: being that there are pathos with many signs and symptoms, instead of trying to memorize all of them is their an easier way to know which ones are the ones we should mainly focus on? Like do we follow the ABCs as a guide to remembering the s&s of an illness?
I’m so sorry to hear you have had a tough go at nursing school, it definitely isn’t easy- especially if you don’t have support from faculty. As far as remembering s/s yes ABCs can help, however i found it best to just try super hard to memorize all of them. It helped me to make pneumonics like make up a phrase or word that is the beginning letter of each symptom. For example, if the symptoms are diaphoresis, hyperglycemia, and headache, i would remember something like “dad hates ham” or something silly like that lol. I hope that helps!! Good luck with everything ☺️
@@paigehoagland286 thank you so much for your tips! I'll definitely try making mnemonics for the s/s so that I can better learn them. With God's help I will do much better this time, bc I won't let nothing stop me 😁
I absolutely love this video. I want to know do you read all of the power points before lecture or do you split up the slides before lecture. I can't do the textbook. It's very hard.
Thank you! I do not read all of the slides before lecture. And i agree i found reading the textbook a waste of my time because i wasn’t retaining anything. Hope this helped 🥰
@@paigehoagland286 thank you for answering my question. Good luck with your nursing career. Would you suggest people read the the slides notes little by little each day?
Am also a nurse 😍
And you know how you said you write notes in lectures and then when you get home re listen to the lecture and write notes on it - what do you do with the notes your do online in the lecture? Are they just used in class ?
Yes, I just use them in lecture. And if i need they are always on my ipad to look back at! I use the second set of notes that i write more i just like to take notes during class too because my professors usually say a lot more than is written on the slides ☺️
Happy 1k subscriber. Im the one who completed the 1k subs
Thank you!! 🥰
Do you read notebook when you study in nursing school?
4❤
sorry, when you write out your notes for the pp when re-listening, do you write what the prof says? or like key points? i relisten too but i switched to typing and dont really retain it. I absolutely think your method will help me better haha
I write what is on the slides and then i add any notes my professor adds that weren’t already on the power point slide. I hope that helps! ☺️
@@paigehoagland286 ohhh okk... yes that helps a lot thank you!!!!! im going to try to do that:)
@@jennamangano3832 absolutely! Good luck!! ☺️💕✨
this video gave me some great ideas!!!!
for your written notes, do you only write down what your professor says in the lecture or do you combine your notes from class with what you hear in the recorded lecture?
Yay that's so good to hear!! I combine the notes in lecture on the power point slide with what she says!
@@paigehoagland286 yay!! thanks for this! i am always looking for new ways to help me absorb such content heavy chapters!
@@tylorgray-perry6487 of course!!! Good luck :)
How do you make notes from the textbook? Do you add them into your written notes from the lecture ?
Yes i add them to the second set of notes i make when i rewatch the lecture. Most of the time i don’t have to add much from the textbook because my professor already talked about it in class so i already wrote it when i rewatched the lecture!
So you read the whole chapters in addition to listening to lectures?
@@Nurse4Life255 not usually! The only time i find myself reading the book is if my professor specifically told us in lecture that there is a helpful table in the book. Every professor is different though! Mine usually just give us all the info they want us to know in our power point lectures. I have found reading the entire chapters to be overwhelming because there is a lot of extra info and details that they aren’t going to test us on.
@@paigehoagland286 I find myself over-studying because I think I need to know/understand everything! Do u study to learn what the professor is teaching or learning as much as u can about as much as you can ? Sounds weird I know but I find myself going deeper and deeper thinking I need to know EVERYTHING and I think it’s counter-intuitive
Can you put a link to the apple pen you use? You could put the link in the description box. 😊Like there’s stylus pens, would they write?
I use the pen that came with my IPad Pro! www.apple.com/shop/product/FU8F2AM/A/refurbished-apple-pencil-2nd-generation?fnode=5019411360b47f68932aa4e733eaeac517aadf2364fc37a0107a0a04f20052839a87d210994f2e967cda369ba84deec8dec37dbffb1d95105eabdb4d49c7e92ee6aac1c2fd72fdcb489cfaaf8b5272cec505cd7cc54c8ced2e74c9767c425b6c here is the link ☺️
Hey, I didn’t get one with my reg iPad I’ll have to ask at metro. Thanks for your reply
@@Nurse4Life255 of course! ☺️
What is the iPad keyboard you are using? I’m trying to find one for my air 4th gen!
I got it at the apple store when i bought my iPad! I think it is only comparable with the iPad Pro because it has sensors that connect it ! Hope that helps ☺️
@@paigehoagland286 it does help, thank you so much!
Is there a video of you making your notes?
I show it in a few of my vlogs!
I have picmonic and my content library only have 24 randoms videos and nothing pertaining to nursing.
So lucky! My program anything below an 85 is a C 😞
Mine used to be below a 76 was failing but they changed it to a 73 when we were on lockdown! Thankfully below an 80 is a C for me! Good luck in your program!! :)
What is the name and type of the iPad? Tanks
I pad pro!
What planner do you use?
Erin condren! It the customizable photo one :)
@@paigehoagland286 Thanks
@@moniceaught5837 of course!! ☺️
I have a hard knowing exactly what I need to know from my lectures
I struggled with that too and its honestly different with each teacher but i just make sure i know everything that is in the power point slides my professor gives us. Sometimes too she will tell us some things are super important to know so i then i know to make sure i 100% know it. But basically all you can do is study everything. Good luck- you’ve got it !!!☺️💕
@@paigehoagland286 thank you :)
what ipad is that?
