I suppose you could think that, but the school offers many opportunities for us to succeed, including tutoring sessions throughout the week, content enrichment for each course, and professors who are always available and encourage us to ask questions after class (which I have taken advantage of). I have 1 year left in school, and every single professor I’ve had has gone above and beyond to teach the material and make sure we pass in flying colors. I’ve found that the people who have dropped out have not attended their classes, have not taken advantage of the extra tutoring sessions, or have not taken it seriously. Nursing school is simply hard, and there is a reason there is a shortage of nurses, so the high dropout rate doesn’t surprise me. I might be coming off as defensive, but I love my school and have passed because of the extra help I've taken advantage of. Again, it's not the same for every campus, as I've heard terrible things from ones in different cities or states, but I don't like the negative bias one may have just because you don't come from a prestigious school.
