I am a junior in nursing school and I just ran into a nurse last night at a party who told me that theory was one thing but actually doing it is another. I am just wondering if nursing school prepares you for the reality of nursing? How well do you think nursing school prepared you? Or did you learn everything on the floor? Any feedback would be welcomed. She also told me that nursing school only prepares you to take the boards not real life nursing. HOw would you respond? Thanks for the feedback.
