Hi everyone,
I just finished the 1st block of Nursing school yesterday. Our 1st block was only 2 weeks long and it was a TON of work. We had at least 5 hours of reading each night and 3 group presentations to do! I was in shock by the amount of work, but it at least forced me to improve my time management. We took our 1st exam yesterday. You have to make at least a 90% in order to pass. Otherwise, you have to remediate. The professors are excellent, especially the Dean who actually taught us this first course in order to get to know everyone. There are 85 students in my class and I am really looking forward to the next 17.5 months. I definitely made the right choice of attending USN. The tuition is high, but they offer a lot of financial aid and do what they can to help. If you're thinking about going to NS, go to USN! :balloons::spin:
