BS!

Published

As near as I can tell, when I finish my BS, I will have a BS in BS. Nursing academia is so wrong. They take an easy subject and twist it with their damn semantics and esoteric ideals (constructed during committee meetings of course) and develop a freaking corriculum that is not educational, but instead a damn exercise is reguritation of conceptual BS.

Thanks CCL, I'm slightly frustrated. I am wasting a lot of time writing BS papers. True education and expanding your intellectual repertoire is good. But damn... I see very little of that in the nursing field of higher education. When will our educators realize they are 20 years behind the times, and living in lala land?

I already have a B.S. in B.S., and I've said that same thing before. After nursing school I'll just have another B.S. in B.S. Somehow I just keep stepping in it.

Hahaha. I love it. And I completely agree. Our instructors say that nurses who come back to further their education always fail the tests because they're bringing knowledge they have from real world experience and it doesn't match what the answers should be. I think this is a problem...

The fact that we have to be taught how to take a test at the end is ludicrous in itself. Well yes, they are all correct. WHICH IS MOST :devil:

Yep, that's why I always pick the school answer rather than the more straight forward, logical answer.
