Hi,
i know the question is hard to answer since it is different for everybody.... but in general..... how hard is nursing school?
I plan on applying to the ADN program at our Community College. I am under the impression that community colleges are usually very managable, as they are meant for pretty much everyone, but does that also apply to nursing? I am a little intimidated after reading some of the posts.
I have always been a good student, but to be honest, sciences and math weren't my strongest subjects.
I am from Germany, so I am also concerned about learning all the "medicalese" in english. I did take 4 years of latin in high school, though...maybe that will come in handy now ;-)
How much do you learn about diseases, diagnostics etc.... i mean, nurses arent really there to diagnose, right? So.... on a scale from 1 to 10, how hard is it? Or lets just say, compared to high school or general CC classes (I took a sociology and an early childhood class at american colleges), how bad would you say it is? what subjects are the hardest? i hear anatomy isnt all that much fun.... i am personally most worried about the chemistry/microbio...
thanks :-)
