First Day of Nursing School -- Success!
Yes, I successfully made it through the first day of nursing school. Glad to know my diligence as a student has paid off as, with strong study skills and test-taking abilities, I should do fine in the lecture portion of class. My main concern lies with skill-building. I'm hoping I remember and can be proficient with the umpteen steps required to master each skill.
Lots of group exercises in both lecture and lab and as a one-on-one type of person, I find this configuration most intimidating. Somehow, I'll perservere. I made sure I purchased all available study and skill guides to supplement my study. I also got the NCLEX study guide as I might as well start preparing for that as we go along.
Hoping the rest of the semester goes as well as I think it will. Please weigh in on your experiences as a first year nursing student (if applicable). So far, so good!

Beginning nursing school!
I'm getting excited to begin my first week of nursing school, that is, until I took a look at a nursing skills manual that we'll be using. I thought NAR training was tough ... 24 skills to learn within a couple months, now I see there are 72 we'll have to have down to graduate (granted, many are repeats of NAR training).
Learning practical skills is something that doesn't come easy for me; I'd much rather study from a book and take a test, write a paper, or turn in some other written assignment.
I'd be interested to hear how the first few months and year of nursing school went or is going for others. What are your tips for getting good grades and studying effectively? I hope to complete the BSN after getting the AS degree, so grades will matter. If I dare, I'd like to think the DNP lurks somewhere in my future!
Any tips on finding well-paying NAR jobs while attending school? I'm checking into per diem work, but ideally, I'd like to get part-time work in entry-level informatics, the kind of full-time job I'd eventually like to have.
Feel free to weigh in on your experiences, tips, and general comments!
