Nurses New Nurse

Hi.

I'm Melissa. I'm fifteen years old, and I've dedicated the rest of my life to becoming a RN. I decided that about two years ago. I'm still in highschool and dreading it. I look up to everyone who is in nursing school or actually out onto the field. I would like some perspective from you guys on what nursing school is like. I'm a little younger...But I'm taking a internship this summer. What school are you in? What jobs are you taking? And what are goals you look for.

See personally for me, things are a little bit harder. I'm only a sophmore in highschool and i'm dying to get out. I'm actually pursing graduating earlier, I would especially appreciate talking to someone who had graduated earlier or who can relate to my situation at all.

I am looking forward to my internship this summer, has anyone taken one? Whats it like?

Well, I would appreciate the advice from all of you.

Thanks so much.

Melissa, everyone is giving you good advice on school so I'll go the other way. One of the most important things is going to be your support group. Try to find other people with the same interests and maybe you'll be in the same nursing class. What do your parents think about what you're plans? What I'm trying to say is talk it through and try to listen. (thats the number one skill of a nurse is to listen and understand) Once you make it into school get into a study group. More things are discussed in those groups than just studying it will help you keep your sanity
