Tell me everything i need to know to prepare my self for nursing school !?


please...!
be straight up and honest!

i can't tell you first hand but my mom was in nursing school a couple years ago and i remember her never being there.
she was always in her room studying for tests...she would show me some stuff that she was learning...the only thing i can remember now is her showing me the "pshutostratified ciliated columnar epithelium"...which is some thing in your nose...lol
she said it was the worst four years of her life, but in the end it was a major pay off :)
hope that helped a little!

You need to know the difference between an oral and a rectal thermometer-the TASTE!

What kind of prep are you talking about? Educational requirements, physical requirements, emotional? Be a little more specific and I'd be glad to offer my experiences.

you didn't say whether or not you are doing a 2 year or a 4 year program. if you have a good handle on science and have the ability to think outside the box, you'll be fine. It's not easy course work, don't let anyone tell you that it is. My best advise to you is that you WILL NOT know everything when you graduate. It will take years of practice to perfect your techniques. Good Luck To You!

i'm in the middle of it right now, and be prepared to not have ANY life what-so-ever, and spend all your time studying..

You can do it.....
