The Reality: Most Nursing Students Are Drowning in Handwritten Notes

According to interviews with second- and third-year nursing students, note-taking remains one of the most time-consuming parts of their routine. Yet few feel confident that these notes are helping them retain key concepts – especially during exam periods, when time is scarce and mental fatigue is high.

• Many students report spending 10–15 hours per week rewriting lecture material by hand.
• Others describe building “note libraries” they rarely revisit.
• Several mention feeling behind compared to peers who seem to be studying less, but performing better.

What Some Nursing Students Are Doing Differently – And Why It’s Working

While most students continued to spend hours handwriting everything from scratch, a few quietly seemed to be taking a different approach. They weren’t skipping lectures or cutting corners — just using a resource the rest of us hadn’t really considered.

At first, I figured it was another tutoring site or a set of generic cheat sheets. But when I finally asked, one of them pulled up a full collection of study notes — more than a thousand pages, neatly organized by topic, visually laid out, and built specifically for nursing students.

I was skeptical. Pre-made notes? Didn’t that defeat the purpose of learning? But as I flipped through them, something clicked. They weren’t a shortcut around understanding – they just stripped away the hours of formatting, rewriting, and second-guessing what actually mattered.
