I am one of the top students in my class (i'm actually convinced that i have the highest grade average in the class, but i dont know if it is true). when i first started off nursing school, i had a very strong drive to do as well as i could academically. i hadnt been in school for about 3 years since my 5 years at a university. being back in school made me realize how academically inclined i really am. so... in order to graduate my program, i need to maintain above an 85 average (or 75... i dont remember...). in college... i initially tried to do well, until i realized that a diploma was a diploma was a diploma... if ur and lpn/rn, you are an lpn/rn no matter where you graduated from... so i'm wondering... how important could grades possibly be while im in school, as long as i pass above the minimum grade... should i continue studying my *** off and keeping that A average... or glance and my book and just pass...
to slack or not to slack...
what difference does this make in acquiring a job?
aside from advancement in post graduate studies...
