And, not to mention, the competitiveness never goes away. Even after 3 years in the School of Nursing, we were still all worried about who did better on what exam or paper, even though it really didn't matter anymore who had the best GPA. It was crazy!!! :uhoh3:

Congratulations on your college acceptance!

You are on your way! Please, please, please listen to our warnings, and take it to heart!

Your friends will not be there 10 years from now to make your living. Make sure you do it right from the start, that way you won't end up starting all over again years from now.

Eat, breathe, and live studying! Have a big party after you graduate, but not now!

Do it right the first time! Make as high of grades as you can, and take it all very seriously!!!!!!!

"WE SPEAK FROM EXPERIENCE!!!!"

Good luck to you!

Congrats! Are you planning to go for your BSN? I will differ a bit in my advice to you. Definitely study hard and do what you need to do to get into the nursing program. But do NOT let it consume you. As I recall you are just graduating from HS, no? College gives you an education beyond just academics, so take the time to enjoy it... dorm life (if you are living on campus), meeting new people, and learning about yourself. Be smart, but have fun.
