Anonymous asked: How do you balance nursing school AND a job? (if you have one haha)

I do actually have one lol. 

Um for me its not too difficult. I somehow manage to even throw a social life in there too but it costs me my valuable sleep time. 

I work for my school so they’re understanding of when I can and can’t work. I only work 10hrs a week so its not so bad. The money I make mostly goes towards paying off student loans and sometimes if I work extra hours I get some spending money. Its really all about scheduling and figuring out what works best for you. I spent a solid 3 weeks at the end of last semester and over break just trying to make everything perfect. I made sure all my classes ended at 530 every day so I could study after. I have hours set of when I should study and how much reading I need to get done. I’ve scheduled times when I should eat, when I can hang out and when I can work. Its meticulous and takes awhile to get used to but it is possible somehow lol.
