      lucia nguyen break them down by classes/group, study the common effects first, then differences, add more details as you progress. For example, adverse effects are the opposite of effects, no need for details. In other words, anti hypertensive drugs would give you hypertension; anti arrhythmic drugs give you bradycardia, etc...

    I'm in nursing school and something I've found extremely helpful is tutoring other people. It helps for the same reason having a study buddy helps, but you synthesize the information so much better when you're able to break it down for somebody who's having difficulty with it.

    The 3 tips:
    1. Get into a good study routine
    2. Find a good study partner
    3. Two techniques mentioned:
    a. Study partners verbally quizzing each other.
    b. Condensing topics into a single page to facilitate spatial recall.

She sets a study schedule, listens to lo-fi that keeps out other distracting sounds, then does her homework this way.

      You have to be dedicated and a bit of a workaholic to survive. Taking notes as fast as you can for about 6 hours a day, then going to the hospital to see your patients and read their charts, then going to the library to study their diagnosis, treatments, and medications, then writing lengthy care plans, then go to your dorm room and review everything til bedtime so when your nursing instructor "interrogates" you the next day you can reply, and (with some) you better know all the side effects of all the drugs.

I studied at 1:00 a.m. in my bedroom especially on exam days. It was the only time that was without distraction. It was SO difficult but worth it. Holding a full-time job afterwards was even harder but rewarding as I taught school and enjoyed the students.

    Current DNP student here and it’s like you are telling my story when I was in undergrad nursing school. Like we are literally the same person. He is not fibbing people. Every single thing he stated, down to every little detail are practices I developed in nursing school. I studied in the exact same cubby in the library every single day. During the last couple days leading up to exams, I made care maps with all the info condensed on one page using different colors and would literally visualized them during exams. A routine is detrimental to your success in medical field studies. I did the same thing every single day and would only study at my apartment sometimes the last couple of days before exams just reviewing my notes. My group and I split up the readings, typed up notes and combined them before class, we would then record and take notes during class, we studies directly after class on campus, I went home and slept for work. Worked over night where I would study, and then go directly to class after work and repeat my day. The days I didn’t have classes I still went directly to the library after work to study. The formula works.

    For me medical school began when I started with the pre requisites of Chemistry, physics, biology and math. I went into Paramedic school after completing emt, cardiology, pharmacology and iv therapy. It made it easy to form a base of learning. The hardest part was the first emt course. When I only scored a 76 and did not read the chapters only skimmed through, I realized that every paragraph in the book had a question on the test. My job was NOT to read through a paragraph and go onto the next until I knew exactly what was important enough to be that question. That it. Spend every moment you can absorbing the information.

    How in the heck did you:
    A. Find/ make time for a video?
    B. Speak intelligible sentences with such little sleep/rest?
    C. Speak #calmly ??

      alliemo62 always time to make a quick 10-15minute video. and sleep deprivation is a part of residency. every medical resident does night shifts like him. esp. surgery, ER, trauma, and neuro residents. it’s a long tradition meant to torture new doctors. 6days straight of nights probably feels like nothing haha

      It always amazes me how doctors and nurses work without any sleep!! I'm a space cadet without sleep! I'm forgetting my keys, wallet and probably my kids, if I had any.

    I’m a stay at home mom of 2 and RUclips decided this video is a must see for me.
    Also I love that every time this guy says “med school” it’s cc as “menstrual”

    I am 15 and I've been studying medicine for the past three years. It helps me to study my other subjects better, I study it more than my school subjects and it just puts me in a space of comfort and happiness

      Fantastic Tips. I was older when I put myself thru college so. I took a study strategies class. The class was worth it's weight in gold.. Thank you..
      All of this is helping me right now. I'm no longer an RN. I'm pushing thru to become an excellent Entrepreneur , growing into who I really want to help and serve. To add value to people's life in a differant way other than nursing. I want to prevent everyone from diseases Dutch
      Yes I'm in the learning stage of the framework of my business. I hope you are using your knowledge with this video for example. To make you extra money? Nice chatting with you. Thank you again.

    6th y med student here. Agree with everything but study buddy... I like to learn alone... and you can not teach people how to learn with video... they need to test things around and see what's best that work for them. And of course they need to want to remember what they are reading to actually remember it. our brain is really cool. U put priority on something, u convince yourself that this is really important and your brain will not let it slide

      Thanks for this comment. Studying with people has always been distracting for me (jokes and getting off topic). Studying alone is so much more effective. Studies show it is too. Only benefit I can see from studying with people is maximizing your resources (like he said lecture materials) or getting something explained that doesn't make sense

      I get NOTHING done at home. there are way too many distractions. At least everyone in the library is working hard and studying so that keeps you focused on your work too.
