Hi there: Can anyone tell me what types of presentations and projects are assigned in both the ADN and BSN programs? I know it depends on the instructor and the school. I would like to know how many individual projects and group projects. What are the specific subjects? Are they case studies? Thanks.

I am in my 30's and I am ready to start a new career. I have been considering going to nursing school for ADN. Here are some questions I have: 1. Are all ages represented in nursing school? 2. Are the students respectful of eachother? 3. I have seen postings and job announcements that BSN is preferred. Do ADNs get passed over for BSNs usually? 4. What type of presentations does an ADN and a BSN student make while in school? Are there group presentations? Are there many individual presentations? Are audiovisuals used, etc? 5. How many students are allowed in a classroom? 6. Why do I read and hear of a nursing shortage? Why do the schools have wait-lists while there is a nursing shortage? I have heard that there is a shortage of instructors and funding. 7. Are hospitals biased to certain community colleges and hire from a select few? Thanks for any info for these questions!!
