ACC RN, a MOTHER & CANCER survivor ... YOURE AMAZING God bless you and might I say , YOURE STUNNING I’m so proud of you

[@KristinaMerrill]

Thank you so much!! You’re so sweet! I appreciate it. ❤️❤️

[@evelynmeza888]

Really great tips. I'm in my first semester nursing school and it's so overwhelming to say the least. Thank you!

[@KristinaMerrill]

So happy you enjoyed it!! When times get rough remember your why! Why you want to be a nurse in the first place. You got this!!

Welcome to hell

[@_packback]

im currently in the first semester of my accelerated program, and my fundi professor LITERALLY reads word-for-word off the powerpoints, including her notes at the bottom. I have my 1st exam next week, 50 questions based on 5 chapters and i have no idea what to study. i really liked the tip of using the textbook questions and pretending they're exam questions. hopefully, it'll help, thank you for sharing this information!

[@KristinaMerrill]

Are you able to reach out to previous students who have taken the course? It always helps to gauge a teachers testing style from former students in those situations. I would make sure you know those slides like the back of your hand. You got this!!

This is super helpful and makes me feel better about the things I’m already doing! Great video! Side note: you will know your schools policies but I am NOT allowed to record my lectures to ensure no one ends up with a HIPAA violation lol🤪

[@Reyna_Aleese]

Do you have any tips on how to study 7 chapters a week?? I start nurse process next semester and I hear it’s so many chapters each week! I’m so scared.

[@KristinaMerrill]

One of the biggest tips I have is to talk to your teachers. Not just in class but after class. Speak with them show them you care and ask their advice. They will tell you how to focus on certain chapters and which ones you don’t really need to harp on.

[@moniquechisholm8964]

Thank you

[@stoopy_.]

My professors MAKE us , they said "you learn better if you find the information yourself " we were not given any study guide or sense of direction just the chapters numbers we have to go over.

[@KristinaMerrill]

That’s so unfortunate!! I’m so sorry. Those standards are not realistic. There is an immense amount of information. I would speak to your professor and explain you need further direction since it’s information overload. If they don’t take action go to their higher up. You can’t pay for someone to tell you to read the chapter. And if they don’t help go somewhere else! Seriously! That’s an awful education why pay them.

[@ShanGong-qd5nm]

My professors are doing the same thing. They are tricking students by this way. If there are not a lot of students get A, they won’t pay scholarships.

[@chandleysroom]

My cohort is using this same edition I clicked so fast LOL

[@KristinaMerrill]

Haha awesome!! Have a great semester!! You got this :)

[@moniquechisholm8964]

Did u use flash cards?

[@meganxiquita7326]

How do you do the recordings is there a feature in PowerPoint?

[@KristinaMerrill]

I used the app called notability, it’s an awesome app.

[@soleil2269]

I’m doing fundamental now and every test is only scenarios smh 🙂 like I’m not passing what can help

[@KristinaMerrill]

I’m so sorry!! Can you give me an example of something similar you had? Then I can provide a better answer. I truly want to help! :)

[@soleil2269]

@Maria Riley yes babes I’ve been a nursing for 9 months now

[@honganhlyable]

Hi did you use any study guide or test bank for your fundamentals class thank you

[@KristinaMerrill]

My teacher provided us with a study guide! It was really just a list of things we should know. She was very straightforward! I made my own quizlets using the study guide or I would just write it out.

Thank you for answering me back

Sucks for us because ours don’t give us PowerPoints 😩

Just work with what you do have! If they let you record then record them. Listen to key words that they say. Meet with them ask what to concentrate on. You got this!!

Powerpoints are useless anyways
