Who is finding nursing school to be easier than expected? After reading posts and listening to students, I would have expected nursing school to be a lot harder. So far, it's quite easy. The only "hard" part about it is a lot of nonsensical busy work. The concepts themselves are quite easy. At first, I studied a lot due to hearing all the horror stories, but as time passes, I find myself not even starting the reading material until the night before a test and I'm acing all of the tests. I was also shocked at the medical math - it's about FOURTH GRADE LEVEL math! I felt like yelling out, "I'm smarter than a 5th Grader!!!!" LOL Same with some of the pharmacology & pathophysiology - fairly simple & straight forward.
Anyone else find the nursing program to be kind of Mickey Mousish? Let's hear from the other side & give some BALANCE to these false horror stories that are circulating about nursing school being difficult.
