Why is a nursing major so "difficult"?

This thread popped up in my “What’s the Chatter?” box, and being an RN (with BSN) for 25 plus years, I was curious as to its contents.

I was a nursing major in the early/mid eighties and I certainly did not take any “toned down” science courses! I’ve never heard of such a thing. I would think general biology, chemistry courses would be open to whatever students need to take the course towards their major. Really…“Biology for Nursing Students”?

A BSN is a science degree. It requires learning and mastering science courses. They are the building blocks that are needed for the more advanced clinical courses.

Anyway…just had to pipe in Glad to see that there are more young people entering the profession - so many different avenues to take with it. Good luck!!
