Recently I posted wondering how everyone chose their "specialty" in nursing, because I have no clue what I want to do yet. Surfing the net I found this site that asks questions that may help narrow things down. I think it's intended for physicians, but it has the same results. Check it out!

Specializes in Gynecology/Oncology.

It told me emergency med, anesthesiology, or otolaryngology. Hmmm... :rolleyes:

Specializes in Community Health Nurse.

Dermatologoy, Opthamology; Otolaryngology :) Those are my top three choices. Guess I'm in the wrong field after all.:rotfl:

Specializes in NICU.

#3 for me was neonatal... exactly what I do! But the top 2 were gastroenterology and cardiology, yuck.

My #1 was radiation oncology, then all kinds of sugeries...

Great site, thanks!

I also got radiation oncology. I was sure Id get OB/GYN:rolleyes:

I got Neonatology:) , #2 Gastroenterology, #3 Colon and Rectal surgery:stone

Specializes in ER.

This is an awesome test! It worked for me, my #1 was Emergency Medicine - great, because that's where I work, and where I want to stay when I get done with nursing school! #2 Medical Genetics - no way would I do that - BORING! #3 Vascular and Interventional Radiology - also interesting, because I almost went into a radiology tech program but decided on nursing.

Specializes in ICU, psych, corrections.

Right on the money....Critical Care Medicine and ER were in my top 5 and that's where I plan to be. I began in the ICU on July 4th. OB/L&D were almost last on my list....right where they should be!!!!
