I am trying to get into nursing school. questions ask on application is what are your strengts and weakness?

why did i choose this profession

Your strengths means the things about you that would help make you a good nurse - think about what they might be. Do you like to help peopel? Are you interested in the sciences? Are you a hard worker? Etc. Your weakness are the things you would have to work harder on to become a good nurse and to succeed in mursing school. For example, would you find shift work difficult?

Why do you want to be a nurse? Only you can answer that question.

You will get this type of question on many things. All they are asking for is what you think you will bring to this profession that will make you a good nurse and what are some things you feel you need to work on to become a good nurse.
As to why you choose that profession, only you can answer that. I know that every profession brings its own set of headaches, but if it is something you really want, it is worth it. Good luck.

I don't know what your strengths are, but one of your weaknesses is your command of the English language.
That is a major drawback as you will need to read what the doctor writes, and you will have to write down a patients symptoms and medication results.
Its a matter of life and death.
