Chapter 1, Adjusting to Student Life
1. The nursing student has found the first 2 weeks of the nursing program fascinating but
overwhelming. This student is anxious and unable to sleep. What action should the nursing
student take to address these feelings?
A. Utilize the counseling services available at the college.
B. Reduce the course load.
C. Eliminate the family activities and recreational activities.
D. Create a study group with some classmates and divide the course work.
ANS: A
Feedback: Counseling services to help students make adjustments and solve problems may be
available to students. If so, they are often very helpful. This is preferable to reducing the
courses the student is taking or eliminating family and recreational activities, which are
beneficial in stress management. Study groups can be helpful, but they are not intended to
divide course work.

2. A nursing student will soon begin a new course with a new instructor. When encountering a
new instructor for the first time, the student should:
A. compliment the instructor on his or her knowledge and skills.
, B. try to get to know the instructor as much as possible.
C. remain silent until the instructor reveals his or her expectations.
D. ask as many questions as possible so that the instructor notices the student.
ANS: B
Feedback: Every instructor is different, and it is beneficial to get to know each instructor‘s
style, personality, and expectations as much as possible. This does not involve offering
personal compliments to the instructor or asking questions for the purpose of becoming
known. At the same time, a student should not be completely silent at the start of a course.

3. A student has just begun a nursing program and is committed to success. When creating a
schedule for the school term, what should the student do?
A. Make sure that recreation is prioritized over school work.
B. Spread out school work evenly between all 7 days of the week.
C. Ensure a balance between school activities and personal life.
D. Put off family activities until the midterm break.
ANS: C
Feedback: A good schedule should be realistic and balanced. To get the most from the
program and still have time for a personal life, the student should make a schedule that fits the
time available, not how much time the student wishes was available. This does not mean that
school work should suffer because of personal activities, however. It is often helpful to
schedule days off rather than studying every day of the week.

4. When learning how to assess clients‘ health, a student has found that the most beneficial
learning technique was watching an online video in which an experienced nurse demonstrated
how to conduct an assessment. Which is this student‘s most likely learning style?
A. Tactile
B. Visual
C. Auditory
D. Kinesthetic
ANS: B
Feedback: Visual learners learn best by watching things such as videos, movies, and
demonstrations. Tactile and kinesthetic learners benefit from touch. Auditory learners prefer
to hear information.

5. A nursing student is aware of the importance of critical thinking, especially in clinical
situations. When applying the principles of critical thinking to a situation, the student should
, begin by asking:
A. ―What did I do the last time I encountered a similar situation?‖
B. ―Why do I need to act in this situation?‖
C. ―What are the consequences of making the wrong decision in this situation?‖
D. ―What are the facts that I know about this situation?‖
ANS: D
Feedback: A useful starting point for the critical thinking process is to determine the facts
about the situation. This should come before a comparison with previous situations. It is likely
not helpful to ask what could possibly go wrong.

for Mathematics ExamsMathematics requires consistent practice. Students should focus on solving a wide variety of problems to understand the different methods and strategies that can be applied. A solid
foundation in theory is also necessary to grasp the underlying principles that guide mathematical procedures. Regular practic e of past exams and time management are crucial to ensure
success.________________________________________4. Comparisons Between Business, Law, and Mathematics ExamsWhile business, law, and mathematics exams differ significantly in content and
structure, there are some overlapping features in the way they test students:Critical Thinking: Each field requires students to think critically —whether it's analyzing a business case, interpreting legal issues,
or solving a complex mathematical problem.Application of Knowledge: All three fields require students to apply knowledge to practical scenarios. Business and law exams often feature case studies or
problem -based questions, while mathematics exams focus on problem -solving with formulas and theorems.Structured Responses: Whether in law exams, which require clear argumentation, business
exams that test strategic thinking, or mathematics exams demanding precise solutions, all require students to structure their response s effectively.However, key differences emerge in the nature of the
assessments. Business exams often blend theory with practical de cision-making, law exams rely on legal reasoning and precedent, and mathematics exams emphasize problem-solving and technical
application. Business exams challenge students to apply their knowledge to real-world situations, law exams require detailed analysis of legal principles and cases, and mathematics exams focus on the

6. The nursing student is working with a female client who had recent hip surgery. The client
was drowsy. The nursing student used critical thinking to determine the action needed to
prevent the client from falling. The nursing student should:
A. walk the client to the bathroom using a walker.
B. transfer the client to a bedside commode.
C. provide a fracture bedpan.
D. use a gait belt and walk the client to the bathroom.
ANS: C
Feedback: The student‘s synthesis of the facts of a situation and the translation of these facts
into action demonstrate effective critical thinking. The client has recently had hip surgery and
is drowsy and will be unsteady on her feet, so trying to get her up by transfer to a bedside
commode or using a walker or a gait belt will not provide the safest choices for helping the
client to be toileted. The fracture bedpan is the safest choice to prevent a fall in the drowsy
postoperative client recovering from recent hip surgery.

7. A nursing student has been informed that much of the content of the nursing program will be
presented in the form of lectures. This means that the student should:
A. make sure to do the assigned readings prior to each class.
B. determine whether the lecture will be beneficial before deciding to attend.
C. record each lecture electronically so that it can be referred to later.
D. schedule a one-on-one discussion with the instructor after each class.

8. The student has recently begun the nursing program and is committed to getting the highest
grades possible. One of the student‘s strategies for meeting this goal is learning how to take
effective notes. What should the student do to make sure the notes are effective? Select all that
apply.
A. Aim to write down everything that the instructors say in class.
B. Take special note of information that the instructors say is most important.
C. Read the notes as soon as possible after class.
D. Review the notes regularly.
E. Get notes from a classmate to compare with the student‘s notes.
ANS: B, C, D
Feedback: Strategies for taking effective notes include highlighting main points, reading notes
after class, and reviewing them regularly. Unless the student has been absent, it is not
normally necessary to obtain a classmate‘s notes. It is unrealistic and unnecessary to write
down everything an instructor says.

9. A nursing student who has recently begun a nursing program is discussing study habits with
his or her classmates. Which statement by the student‘s classmates suggests effective study
habits?
A. ―I find it‘s best to study the easy subjects first and then the hard subjects.‖
B. ―In order to be efficient, I always try to do my studying as fast as I can.‖
C. ―I don‘t take a break until I‘ve finished everything that I have to study.‖
D. ―I try to schedule my studying ahead of time so that I get everything done.‖
ANS: D
Feedback: Creating a schedule for studying is conducive to effective time management and
success. It is best to study hard subjects before easy subjects. Regular breaks are important,
and effectiveness, not speed, is the goal of studying.
