have anybody experienced to much politics while in nursing school? meaning students not getting along or to much drama among students...
I try to get along with everybody but sometimes the environment is not nice to be in. is this how it's going to be working in a hospital since it's going to be a bunch of women working in once place? ...

As much as you, based on what you said, try to maintain cordial relationships with your classmates, to even make friends with a few of them, there will aways be drama to some extent. Sometimes it will not be a big deal, but sometimes it may look like a scene from some Brazilian telenovela. Moreover, drama always exists in schools, and workplaces. The point is, stay true to yourself. If you do happen to be in a place where drama unfolds, stay out of it, do not engage. Also, yes, you would want to be friends with your classmates since you are together almost each day for the next2-4 years. The reality is how many of those so-called friends will still see once you graduate? The best solution to avoid any sort of drama is to stay on down-low. Come in, greet them, exchange a few epithets, and get to learning. This helped me a lot to get through many semesters of schooling.

Umm, I don't think you want to be cursing at them in greeting. Sotto voce, perhaps, but not out loud, LOL.
Lol, I did not mean curse, I know epithet kind of has its connotation, but in this particular instance I mean, "say a few words, and be done."
From Dictionary.com
noun1.any word or phrase applied to a person or thing to describe an actual or attributed quality:Richard the Lion-Hearted†is an epithet of Richard I.
2.a characterizing word or phrase firmly associated with a person or thing and often used in place of an actual name, title, or the like, as man's best friend†for dog.â€
3.a word, phrase, or expression used invectively as a term of abuse or contempt, to express hostility, etc.
I'd definitely recommend "say a few pleasant words, then go," LOL. Have a great day!

I tend to gravitate towards #3 but my therapist tells me I'm making great improvement in hopes of pleading down the assault charge.
