Medic to RN?

[TexasmedicRN]

Finally towards the end of the road. See a light but can't tell if it's the end of the tunnel, or a train. I am really nervous, wondering if I can make it through. I have made straight A's on all of my pre reqs but hear nursing school is a different animal. How hard is it for medics? I hear it's hard to change your thinking from an acute type medicine to more long term, total patient care thinking. How do I keep from being a failure? Most medics I have spoken with who went through the same program say it's not neccassarily hard but a lot of busy work. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

When you say "medic", are you referring to first responder (EMT, Paramedic, etc) or military? Clarification please.

Sorry, paramedic.
