sorry to be so offtopic but does someone know of a method to log back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb forgot my password. I love any tricks you can offer me.

[@future_nurse_kindra636]

I found your videos today and I'm addicted. Your charisma, sincerity and, genuineness are refreshing. Always straight to the point, and your points are always valid. I'm very hard on myself and always strive to be better each semester. I love your tips and I'm glad I found them in my second semester. This will definitely be the icing on the cake for my study skills. Stay blessed and beautiful.

[@JanisesJourney]

Great advice! Regarding your first "don't." You definitely have to feel out your cohort. I was so lucky to have an amazing cohort. We kept each other motivated. Shared each pass and fail, had big and small study groups. By the end of the program we were definitely a family and the classes ahead of us always told us we were one of a kind 🥺🥰

[@DominiqueDooley]

AGREED. I hope everyone is as lucky as we were to experience this. If not the entire cohort, your group! 🩷

[@Samchandia]

you are so motivating & you are really helping me ease my anxiety with starting nursing school next month!! thanks so much!

New subscriber 👋🏾 I love this video, and I wish I would have known to come to KZbin for advice when I first started nursing school. I will be going into my third semester in the fall, and these tips are important for each semester! My favorites: do not compare and study to understand. Congrats on passing first semester 🎊

[@soniagil9527]

Hey girl!! I absolutely love your videos! You are so well spoken and offer great advise and insight! The glare on your glasses, though, is very distracting. We’d love to be able to see your eyes instead!

Thank you gorgeous & thank you for telling me, I’ll definitely check for the glare next time 💗

Do you take summer / winter classes or do you prefer the break ?

[@DominiqueDooley]

Hey, so it depends on a lot especially the circumstances; I will be taking summer classes in 2021 to get started on my BSN. However, last summer I had a break because there were no classes for me to take to get ahead as I've finished all my pre-reqs & have my associates degree.

[@nellybelly3751]

I liked this video and I went back and the like wasn’t there idk what’s going on I just wonder if this happened to others

[@blondy01]

Love your glasses! Where are they from?

[@lindseychoi]

Do I have to join a study group even though I can focus better when studying alone? Is it essential or a better option for everyone?

[@DominiqueDooley]

Hi! I suggest at least having one study partner. I also enjoy and prefer studying alone; however, I feel there are many benefits to having at least one study partner. This allows you two, or all, to share ideas and concepts. Also, you'll probably see you may have missed something. Hope this helps!

[@lindseychoi]

@@DominiqueDooley Thank you for your suggestion. I am introverted but will try my best to find one or two parters. Thank you!

Love the vid sis! And ik this is something you can't really control but the reflection from your ring light in your glasses is really distracting and I cant see your eyes. If there is any way you could put the ring light more to the side that would be great!
