Managing time while working and studying nursing
I’m trying to balance my current part-time job with a full-time nursing curriculum. It feels impossible to find enough hours to study while also meeting clinical requirements and maintaining some semblance of a personal life. Does anyone have advice on how to be more "efficient" with study time so I’m not spending 10 hours a day just staring at textbooks?

Efficiency is the secret to surviving nursing school. Instead of reading chapters cover-to-cover, try focusing on targeted practice assessments. I started using the modules at https://www.simplytests.com/exams/nursing-school which are designed to help you zero in on specific nursing topics quickly. It allows you to identify your knowledge gaps within 30 minutes, rather than spending hours on topics you already know well. This "active recall" method will save you so much time and keep your stress levels from peaking during your clinical rotations.
