The Guys Club: Guy Students Come on In!

Published

Hi All!

I'm a crazy father of 2 ex-premed who just recently turned down Northwestern to go into a RN program.

I already have an Associate in Science, but I'll be getting another ADN and then go to a 4 yr school.

When I went to an info session about the RN program ill be trying to get into, out of like 70 ppl only 5 were guys.

So I want to know are there any men out there?

sooo...hey all you fockers out there! i am not a guy..but rather a girl...and i am graduating in about...oh...65 days or something like that. anywho...in a class of 44 we have two guys and all of us ladies absolutely love them! so...keep up the good work and we will continue to recruit more guys so maybe then there can be a respectable profession where it is 50/50.

and if there are any cute, single students or graduates who are over the age of 26 and live in our around CT....let me know! maybe we can talk nclex or something. GOOD LUCK TO ALL! and i hope no one minds a girl posting here! NIGHT!

Hey, us older guys want to part of the club also. The ones in school who say that they have 6, 9, 10 guys in their class should be ecstatic. When I was in school, there were 40 students and 2 guys and he dropped out after a year. Being the only guy had its ups and downs but it would have been nice to have a "dude" to hand with.

Hi all youz guyz!

I'll be heading to NYC and Columbia after nearly 20 years in California - I'm in the ETP/BSN>NP program and saw about a dozen males out of 120 students at "visit day" - psyched to change direction and get into health care. Anybody else in Manhattan on this board, lemme know! I could use some tips on living arrangements and all that.

there are 8 guys in my class (out of 48 students) I think it is great because they guys in my class are pretty close. It's even better when we are in clinical rotations together because some nurses (from past experiences) seem more at ease when there is more than one male student on the floor learning. almost like they aren't being stuck with the "odd man" out... so to speak..
