RN or Paramedic

[Kevsab7]

Hello I'm in the RN program, currently in Med-Surg. I am in a school that is a very respected school known to the RN world, that makes a very high standard for RN students which nothing is wrong with that but just so you see my point. I'm finding it very very hard to pass my class GIGU (Med-Surg) (this is my 2nd time taking the class):nuke:, so you can imagine with a lot of sacrificing being made and not getting out the results you have BEEN hoping for. So my question to everyone is what can/do I do? I'm thinking to take the approach towards Paramedics to get more experience or is that a foolish route considering I'm half way there to get my RN. I'm an exhausted student looking for peoples experience in BOTH paramedic and RN.

I know this question, many might not like it:smackingf but I'm not the type finding the easy way out I'm actually in the medical field because I sincerely want to help others emotionally, physically, and spiritually.

So here's the question What schooling is found to be harder? paramedic or RN?

Any advice for someone struggling in med-surg? Is it normal to struggle as much in med-surg? Do the classes after med-surge like peads, cardio, psych, & OB are as intense?

Please ANY feedback/help is much appreciated.. :)
