Walking a Thin Line Today

I'm headed in for clinical this morning. My instructor has a "review" today, so we're supposed to be on our best behavior. I hope we get to give an evaluation today because I am ready to vent. I feel like I'm getting the short end of the stick that isn't very long to begin with.

You know what they say, "You get what you pay for."

2nd Test

AGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I am so freaking tired of this. The first test I took a few weeks ago I made a 90%. Not too bad. I studied, did all of the reading, answered nclex questions out the wazoo and I made some stupid mistakes, but still got an A on the exam. Today after busting my butt every day, reading, answering nclex questions,reading, doing objectives, reading, working from the online and CD resources I end up with a big fat 72% on my second test. Did I mention that I did all of the reading? WHAT AM I DOING WRONG????????????

There is just too much information to grasp in a short amount of time.

If anyone has suggestions for studying SMARTER not HARDER. Please let me know. I don't know if I can put in any more hours.

Very frustrated with nursing school right now.
