Hello. I'm diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder. I want to do nursing. My roommate recently suggested that I aim for high end colleges and tell them about my experience with schizophrenia because it would "fascinate them more than the average smart student". I was planning to keep it a secret. Do you think it would hurt me if I went that way and told them my real, true, deep reason is because I want to get into psychiatric nursing because it interest me because I want to know everything about schizophrenia and the brain and other peoples experience. I have so many plans. But yeah. Do you think telling the nursing school admissions about my diagnosis would boost or hinder my chances?
