I'm in my first semester of nursing school and I love all the stuff we are learning. My classmates have been pretty nice overall but some of them have been complaining about how certain things are. Being on this site prior to getting in I've already expected most of these behaviors but I wanted to see if these things happen in other programs:
My lab partner doesn't read her chapters prior to lab and wonders why she doesn't know whats going on
In Health Assessment lab, for each Assessment we fill out to labwork ourselves relying on our readings and videos. The professor only comes around if we ask or if there is a particular technique she wants to make sure we see in person.
One teacher constantly picking on me about my multi-earrings on non lecture days -_- Obviously on clinical/lab days I take them out. She also doesn't want any hair accessories during clinical/lab, she is the only professor that cares.
The same teacher picks on another student about her tattoos, telling her to stop it. Mind you she got them 4 years ago when she wasn't thinking about being a nurse.
Insane amount of work (not complaining, I already expected it). Starting next week we will have a test every week until Dec. finals, except one week in Nov.

I know no one is specifically pointing me out in this posts but...I really am not stressing about anything except grades.
I was just pointing out some nuances about school *shrugs* I thought this would be fun.
I'll stick to making serious posts from now on to avoid the confusion.
