EP 75 - Prepping for Finals Week...What Actually Works?

In this special episode, Dr. Morgan Taylor, DNP, CPNP, CCRN, breaks down her proven, go-to strategy for preparing for finals—tools she used through her BSN, DNP, certification exams, and NP boards. If finals are coming fast (and let’s be honest—they always do), this episode gives you a practical roadmap to study effectively without burning out. Dr. Taylor shares the exact three-part system she teaches her own students—and still uses herself today. You’ll learn why starting early matters more than you think, how to break down your study plan into actionable steps, and which study methods actually get information into long-term memory. Plus, she’ll talk through how to approach the day before the exam so you walk in clear-headed and ready to perform. Perfect for nursing students heading into finals week, anyone juggling multiple classes at once, or NCLEX® preppers who need a repeatable, reliable study framework. Whether you’re overwhelmed, starting late, or just want to feel more confident walking into your exams, this episode gives you the structure you need to succeed. Find everything Archer Review has to offer: ⁠⁠archerreview.link/PulseCheck⁠⁠ Use code PULSECHECK10 - an exclusive discount just for our listeners! Connect with us!  📸 Instagram: @archernursing 📘 Facebook: Archer NCLEX Review 🎵 TikTok: @archernursing ▶️ YouTube: Archer Review NCLEX, USMLE, TEAS7, and FNP
