I dont know if I am just nervous or having severe writers block, but I can not for the life of me figure out how to go about answering the first topic for the CU nursing application essay My cumulative gpa is a 3.45 and my pre reqs are only a 3.11 ( same old "did't try hard my freshman year" story). If anyone has any advice or ideas, your help would be greatly appreciated!! Here is the first topic: (A) Describe your perceptions and attitude about nursing today. In your answer, identify current information about the field of nursing including the demands, expectations and career options. Again, any help will be GREATLY appreciated!
