I'm having problems with my fellow Nursing students.?

I just don't find the Nursing curriculum challenging, and when I hear peers complaining about how "hard" it is, it pisses me off! I don't know why, I probably should feel glad that I'm able to grasp the material so easily, but I'm not. I'm like you think this is hard?, You have no effin clue whats coming up then. I was originally going to be a chemical engineer so maybe it's just because I'm really well prepared. I go to a regular 4 year university and plan on getting my BSn then at least a masters, but now i'm unsure because I don't know if im going to be able dealing with co-workers who really don't know about pharmacology/chemistry/biology principles, but rather who are just memorizing common syptoms . What do you guys think?

I think this is the wrong field for you. You don't like people.

Well, that's the problem with being smarter than most of your peers. I have the same problem a lot of the time too. What do I do? I choose not to socialize with the majority of my classmates. If you really want to be a nurse, then be a nurse. Do a good job and just be pleasant to your peers. You don't have to be friends with your co-workers. Keep the negative comments to yourself.

Well, how bad do you want to be a nurse, and how much does this bug you? Because it's a sign of things to come. There will be times and places when you have to cope with having professional colleagues, and even superiors, whom you know or suspect to be less than competent -- and you'll have to behave as though you respect their opinion. Might as well learn how you will best cope now, rather than trying to deal with it where real patients are put at risk... it'd be much harder on you then.

I'll bet that finding the fortitude to diplomatically mitigate the damage other nurses and doctors can do is probably part of being an excellent nurse. I think you should try to find positive ways to resolve your reaction, perhaps by helping them indirectly. You're apparently bright enough to handle it well, if you really want to. If control is something you need really bad, then maybe you should consider going into a branch of nursing that won't put you in contact with situations like this.

It's college, not high school. Let them get over it. Be yourself and steer clear of the Buffy's

I agree with Kacky maybe this is the wrong field for you. If you have a hard time dealing with your peers patients may drive you mad.

I agree with the last answerer. Unless you intend to be a lecturer/researcher/academic, consider a different career. I am a degree qualified professional Engineer with a Masters specialising in Risk Mgt. My wife is an intensive care nurse, that started medicine after practising nursing for several years. I knew that I didn't have the empathy to be a health professional. She has it in spades, some times too much.
With my limited training in personality types, I think you'd find an analysis of your work preferences would steer you a long way clear of an empathetic profession.
It is good to have confidence and intelligence, definitely required for the type of nursing that my wife does, but you have to round that out with people skills to be a health professional.

You'll never be satisfied as a nurse. Don't waste your time preparing for a career you'll just get frustrated by. How about Pharmacy or Medical School if you want to do something in medicine.
