Finals week for nursing school can be a little stressful. For one we do NOT in any way shape or form really follow the main campus finals schedule. The only two classes in the program that do are the ones you can take before being admitted into the program and for that fact they have to follow main campus. The classes I am referring to are Health Promotion and Pathophysiology. With this being said, my first advice for finals week is to know your schedule. Know where you will have to be and when to take all your finals. Since we do not follow main campus, these are normally listed in your syllabus or will be talked about in class.
The next thing to remember for nursing school is to study for one test at a time. Since we do not follow main campus, the professors work together on the finals schedule. This can happen because we are all in those same classes, so everyone knows what everyone else is doing in terms of when the finals are. The make sure they are spaced apart enough to give you normally at least a day to study for each test.
Take advantage of the study guides and hints each professor gives out. Some tell you a lot about the final and others do not. Take advantage of any and all information to better condense your study material into what is most important.
Finally, not only are you going to be taking finals, but for some classes you have to take and pass and ATI test. Normally studying for these is basically studying for your final as well. For ATI tests, take advantage of practice tests and the books that we had to buy. The books condense the material as well as give you practice questions.
Finally, good luck to everyone on their finals and ATI. You will do great!
