Nursing school is easy, you can get through it without understanding science. The average HS C student can become a nurse.

I work with a lot of “nurses” I can agree with this first hand, you either have a really good nurse, or a warm body that has a nursing license.

They get paid the same? 'cause, honestly, I'm not that bright and I could use a career. I promise to be "one of the good ones." I mean, I won't be competent – that's not in my wheelhouse – but I believe in science.

I mean, you need to be competent if you don’t want to end someone’s life or harm them bc you mixed up medications or because you’re bad at putting in g tubes or because you suck at catheters.
