How does Nursing rank in comparison to other majors in difficulty?

I was wondering when u tell someone, "Im a nursing major" Do they give u a weird look and tell u, oh thats easy, or like, oh thats difficult. Do u think that nursing is one of the most difficult majors at ur school? Is nursing at the level of being in medical school, or like pre-med? I know all the things we deal with from reading all the threads like.. "oh my life is over" .. "how am i gonna ever pass." When i think of other majors, psychology, business, philosophy, and education, i dont think they have it that hard. Does nursing have that prestige like saying, oh im gonna be a doctor, and we all go, "wow, thats real difficult". Do people go, oh a nurse, wow thats difficult compared to other majors.

Specializes in ob, med surg.

My anatomy professor used to say that those who struggle through A&P generally do very well in Nursing classes. I found that, this was pretty much true, so chin up!

Do you actually believe your instructor?

I dont, if that was the case, how come nursing schools mostly accept students who get A in anatomy?
