-
0Jul 12, '11 by WeberIn your professional opinion, what's the average IQ of a BSN nurse? Could, say, someone of average to slightly above average IQ become a nurse?

Common sense states above avg due to the skill, unpredictablity and creativity needed in an avg shift.joanna73 and ChristineN like this. -

13Jul 12, '11 by NurseLoveJoy88I believe IQ have little to nothing to do with whether someone will make it through nursing school, pass boards, and land a job.
I have worked with nurses that were not the brightest bulb on the tree with all different levels of education. Some nurses are book smart but lack clinical skills and vice versa. -
- 3Jul 12, '11 by ANNIENURSEANGELThis has nothing to do with iq level. Nursing is how well you communicate, asking pertinent questions, being a good team player, and being flexible. If you have all these, or learn these skills, you will go far.
- 1Jul 12, '11 by Lillian2515The degree does not necessarily match the IQ level. Some schools have much higher standards than others. You have to be above average intelligence to graduate from one of the top ten schools....as well as very passionate and dedicated to the work. Hard work can get you a long way, but if you can't connect the dots......szeles23 likes this.
