Hello I am a pre clinical student finishing my last of the pre reqs this fall. Doing the pre reqs gives me a chance to sit with the non nursing students and I get to know many of them. I am very surprised that not many of them are interested in nursing, including the bright ones in my science classes. I want to do my own little part to help with the nurse shortage. I need suggestions on persuading skills on this subject! It is tough.
I know the income doesn't seem to interest them much, because even with the economic downturn, many still think they can make a lot more in the financial or internet area.
Thank you in advance!
Christina
