Tell them Alexis! Nursing school is not impossible. I graduated nursing last year in August and I had a baby halfway through my program and I also had two other small children. I also graduated during a pandemic. You have to be dedicated and organized. But if I could do it, you can too.

I got C’s in all my science classes and I just started my 3rd semester of nursing school!!!! Remember YOUR WHY!!!! You want to be a nurse for a reason so hang onto that whenever you feel discouraged and press on!!! Nursing school isn’t for everyone but remember we got in for a reason ♥️

That's how I get thru life " if they can do it, I can certainly do it too" lol.

Got a c on my first 2 tests in nursing and my advisor told me I should be scared and that it might not be for me. Ended up with a high B in the class... don’t be scared of what negative things they might tell you! Take it day by day

We used to group study. That helped me alot. Got some really close friends in school to vent to, cry it out, whatever.. if i can do it anybody can.. im a single mother of 5 and made it through.. against all odds.. graduated cum laude and was inducted into phi theta kappa. ive been a registered nurse 3 years now and am in nurse management.. God makes the impossible, possible...

“I have beef with counselors..” 😭😂

Back in 2017, my counselor told me to change majors after getting a C in intro biology.. flash forward to now I graduated from nursing school with honors. Don't ever let anyone tell you to give up on your dreams!

I was always a B and C student doing my pre reqs and got As and Bs in nursing school. I was always terrified of failing out but nursing school is doable and I worked part time . It’s a short term sacrifice :) Goodluck to you all you got this and you CAN do it !

I failed fundamentals and I am feeling discouraged. I shouldn't let that define me! Thank you, I needed this!!

I think God is really talking to me . I’m applying to nursing school in the spring of this year and I see all these videos about nursing school and I started to get discouraged. God sent you at the right time . Thank you I needed this!!!

Yes! I said the same thing! Nursing school isn’t necessarily “hard”, it’s just soooo much info to learn in such a short amount of time. That’s what make it difficult.

Just got accepted to a bsn program start fall 2021. I have 4 semesters to get through. 1) planner ✅ 2) study group ( will get one ) 3) motivated / serious/ determined / positive attitude LETS GOOOOOOO!!!! Thank you !

I am in a BSN program now. I received my Associates in Science and struggled with some of the sciences classes like A&P but I am doing amazing in nursing and even made the Dean's List. I completely agree with everything you said!!

The pep talk I needed 💓 you’re the best.

I failed 2 semesters and was told perhaps I should look into something else. I’m a PCU nurse right now lol 👩🏽‍⚕️ Sis, follow your dreams

Yaass! This video is right on time! I didn't get into my university's nursing school back in my undergrad. Counselor told me to change my major or drop out. Sooo, naturally I changed my major. Fast forward 8 years and a career change later...I'm now in nursing school! Started on Tuesday! 🥰

I’m in my last semester of my BSN, & I wouldn’t do it again if someone paid me a million dollars 😂😂😂 it’s just super rigorous, and it’s so hard to not be hard on yourself. & never compare yourself to your classmates!!!

4:35 is where she tells truths ya’ll! The amount of information that gets thrown at you in 8 weeks courses are literally the most difficult part! Retaining it seems almost impossible sometimes. Perseverance is all imma say after that 😅

This almost made me cry. I’m literally stressing over A&P, at this point I’m hoping to receive a C for the class.

Thank you chica! I’am 44 yrs old finishing up my prerequisites to enter the RN program. A&P have been my challenge but I’am done worrying! I’am doing this, because I know this is my mission in life. Thank you soooooo much for being so positive overall ❤️ blessings to you Babe 🙏

Oh yes the work load is alot. I am on my secong semester . Its all online and being a visual learner but i am motivated

You are AMAZING 🌟 I started following you in 2017, when I decided to apply to nursing school. I took my NCLEX two weeks ago, & passed in 75 questions !! I already have 2 job offers. Your support & encouragement has meant the world to me 😃 I used your code for quizlet, I had never heard of it before ! I started taking classes to go toward my BSN while getting my ADN. Your advice and sharing your journey has helped me so very much !!! I can never say thank you enough ❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

I'm in nursing school right now as an S1 and I feel like you hit all the points! WE CAN DO THIS GUYS

OMGGG i was just saying this today😭. I’m currently in my second semester of nursing school and I feel like the work load makes it hard not really what I’m learning.

I literally opened KZfaq so I could find a nursing video to motivate me to study, and you had just posted this! I applied for nursing school today as this is my last semester of prerequisites. I'm so excited, thank you for posting this!

Period, This boosts my confidence even more and I am not stopping until I become I succeed.

@thenursenook girl I needed this so bad. I was going to call my LPN school tomorrow and tell them I was going to drop out of the program before it even started, because I was scared I was going to fail. You just gave me the best reassurance, thank you!!! 💋💕

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I needed this talk from someone who completely understands what I’m going through right now.♥️

Thank you for this video I really needed to hear this. I’m currently taking my pre reqs and have gotten all A’s so far but I do get overwhelmed and discouraged when counselors and even some family members remind me how competitive and hard nursing school is and I even doubt myself but this motivated me and I know I’m doing it all for the right reasons. Thank you again.🤍🤍🤍

Beautiful advice nurse Nook love this type of positive feed back because now a days these folks are on KZfaq talking about “nursing is not the deal” or “nursing is not what I thought“ I’m a nursing student almost done and damn me if I graduate after all this hard work and give negative feedback to students knowing that the nursing field is versatile and you can move up from there so I appreciate this thank you ♥️

Thank you thank you so much for this video. I'm on my journey towards becoming an RN and really appreciate you great advice and motivation.

Literally what I needed to hear! Thank you, you inspire me so much ❤️ I’ll be taking my TEAS test next month and applying to the nursing program in the spring 😄🤞🏻

I start Nursing school Monday. REALLY needed this, thank you beautiful 💗

thank you ! im starting my nursing journey as a second career. i was putting it off for years because i already have a BA and i was nervous about getting back into school but now im more focused.

love this video! I appreciate the positive energy you are projecting to your followers and people like myself who are currently on the road to nursing school. I remember during my LVN school there were a lot of people who had doubts of me reaching my goal to becoming an RN. I silenced those voices, worked in silence, and now I am a step closer to taking my RN courses. Grades to not define you.

I have been watching you since before I finished my pre reqs for nursing and now I’m in my second semester of nursing school!!! crazy how time flies but I stay watching your videos

I LOVED this advice! I totally agree with everything you said! As someone who totally felt not smart enough going into nursing school and now is in the final semester- it is possible!! And so true that organization is KEY!

I watched this video as I cried out of frustration of how difficult my nursing program is. As many conversations as you and I have had and all the videos I have watched of yours, you still make me want to just continue and keep going. Thank you for sharing your journey with us and creating this platform for yourself where you can motivate other people.

This week was my first semester of nursing school, and let me tell you, DOUBT has already crossed my mind. It is very much a great workload!! You posted this video at a perfect time, I really needed this!! 🥰🥰🥺

Thanks for the pep talk. Got into nursing school and I start in May. A lot of videos on KZfaq are very discouraging, thank you for being different and real ❤

Here I am still watching your videos and I have 4 months left of nursing school! Time has flown by and your videos have definitely helped get me through it! ❤️

I changed major a long time ago from nursing to Hr but I love watching your vids! You make me want to be so organized!

Thank you for this pep talk girl I really needed this ! 🙏🏾❤️ God bless you

Currently in my first quarter of my LVN program and I definitely needed to hear this as I’m studying at 1 am and struggling because I’m already so overwhelmed with the amount of information being thrown at me so thank you!! 🥺🥺💗

YASSS GIRL! You are spot on with this pep talk. Too many people discourage others into getting into nursing school, we most definitely need to be doing the OPPOSITE! More Nurses are NEEDED! Thanks for sharing🙌🏼

Thank you for making this video! I’ve been feeling really unmotivated and burnt out lately! You gave me a little hope ❤️

Yesss, it's never impossible to come out great it nursing!! Thanks very much for this motivation...You're the best!!💕

I just want to say I appreciate your channel so much I have been following you for awhile and feel like I resonate with your content and feel like a close sis giving me guidance in my nursing career, just wanted to say thank you for what you do ❤

I’m in my final semester of nursing school & everything you mentioned was spot on! I am not a type A student & I have bad habits of procrastination and low motivation, but organization & study groups is truly what helped me succeed! Thank you so much, love your vids!!!

I failed a whole bunch of classes and had so many withdrawals. I got diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder and ADD and got help and retook all my classes and got A’s and B’s and got accepted into nursing in May 2020! I’m in my first semester and it’s a lot of information but I love that everyone who told me I couldn’t can now watch me make my way to the end of nursing school 🖕🏼👌🏼🙌🏼👋🏼💁🏼‍♀️❤️❤️❤️ YOU CAN DO IT!!!! She’s not lying when she says it’s possible!

omg thank you for this !! I’m currently applying to nursing school for the fall and I’m....so scared >.< but hearing your story and watching your growth is so inspiring and motivational

I start my RN program on Monday . I am so nervous and excited. I have three little ones and work full time. My husband is an incredible support system so I won’t have to do this alone 🤎 thank you for this content !!

Girl!! Thank you for sharing your nursing journey. I started watching your videos I’m 2017 and I FINALLY started nursing school this month!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 I’m on the struggle bus y’all... pray for me. I ain’t young no mo Lololol

Thank you so much for this video! I'm in my third semester and felt overwhelmed. Thank you!

I’m applying for an ABSN program in April! Thank you for this video I feel like I really needed the encouragement! I’m so excited!

Thank you for this video. I'm in my last semester of my ABSN program and before starting I kept watching videos that emphasized that nursing school was hard but never really elaborated. Which made me doubt myself and fear school. But you are 100% right, the material isn't necessarily hard, it's all the other things they throw on top of it that makes nursing school difficult. Having to balance lectures, reading, assignments, quizzes, exams, and making sure you're actually retaining all the info is what makes nursing school hard, in my opinion. I hope your video helps relieve some anxiety for those going into nursing school. It's been very validating for me.

Approaching my last semester of nursing school & what you said in this video is extremely relevant! Thank you for the motivation throughout my nursing journey!

Omg yes. I’m 7 months away from graduating with my ADN. I agree it’s difficult from the amount of things that come with it. It’s draining but I know I’ll thank myself later. Thank you for this video ❤️❤️

I’m trying to get into the nursing program for fall! 🤞🏽🙌🏽This will be my second attempt! I love this video, very encouraging. Thank you so much! ❤️

Thank you very much for this sincerely. Hearing this from a completed RN is amazing ❤️

I wanted to be a nurse from I was 5 year old and I'm still working towards that thank you for sharing your experience with us!❤️🙏

Just finished my 2nd week of nursing school and u hit the nail on the head when you said the course load is a lot!! We have a 22 chapter test Monday in Fundamentals. I'm taking Pharmacology and Fundamentals this semester and we have 2 book per class!! Its a lot of info but pushing thorough because ain't know what my end goal is!!

Thanks so much for sharing. I love watching your videos.❤️ This is my confirmation to keep pursuing a nursing career. 🩺

Omg thank you so much for this! Since the semester started, it's been so overwhelming 🥵😫 especially, when after every sentence, professors say "If anything, you'll get kicked out!" Really needed someone to give some positive motivation, not just scare the heck out of you.

Thank you so much for this!!!!! Blessings to you and yours! 🙏🏼😌

Thank you for making this video 💕 I am in my third semester of nursing school and I am trying to start enjoying the experience from now on 💕

I loved this so much. Truly needed this. I’m about to apply to my nursing program & my biggest worry rn is doing good on the ATI TEAS & getting accepted. ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you so much!! I needed this! 💗 new subscriber!

just finished my first week of my bsn program. i’m so scared but so glad this video popped up when it did. but definitely trying to stay positive about the next 2 years!

I definitely needed this video !! I’m in anatomy and physiology 1 and it’s tough because we’re learning a lot. Anatomy isn’t really hard it’s just A LOT of information to take in with very little time and remember and actually learn it. But I’m gonna keep pushing I know I’ll get through 😌

I just started my first semester of nursing school this week after a being rejected the first time i applied because I had C’s in anatomy and chem. These 2 grades ended up causing me to be uncompetitive for my university’s program the first time I applied. I retook those classes and ended up with A’s in both the second time. Now that I’m in the program, I’ve been trying to process the fact that what I’ve been working towards for years (including high school) is actually here along with how much work it I have to do lol. Thank you for saying this! I really appreciate the words of encouragement!!

Yayyyy! WELCOME LOVE😘😘😘 Please do hair and fitness video!!!! You look gorgeous!!! I am trying to workout and tone my body but I don’t know where to start. Help me!!!😘😘😘

You are true nurse !! Thank you for All your work and Videos!! Go on !!

Yes, I've heard medical students and nursing students say the information isn't hard, it's just the amount to memorize. I was so relieved .

Thank you for being positive about everything and truthful! I really appreciate it not everyone is being so positive.

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO! I think it's definitely an area that needs to be talked about, especially for those who are pre-nursing or in nursing school. YOU CAN DO THIS! Can you do a video about staying motivated throughout nursing school?!

LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! ❤️ You motivate me not to give up!!

I agree with EVERYTHING in this video. I don’t sugar coat anything you when I tell people about nursing school but I always tell them IT IS POSSIBLE. And that’s funny I had a counselor like that too when I went to college the first time. And the support system thing is what got me through nursing school.

Ok! This is exactly what I need it to hear from someone...thank you💜

Thank you!! I needed to hear this!

I just think u r one of the best nurses out there. U r so Inspirational , and I'm more convinced in wanting to become a nurse.💕

Thank you for these kind and encouraging words! Means a lot!!!

I needed this! I’m not in nursing school but I am on Dental school. I feel like it’s similar because they’re both medical! Thank you!

Thank you so much for this video !!!! I can say I do need to work on my organization !! It will get there in the long run 😅 I’m working on .. soon I’m going to apply for the ADN I would love to know your experience in the ADN program 🥺 !! but thank you once again for this pep talk 😍✨

I was crushed after getting a C in my intro to pharm class...looking back at last semester I realize how disorganized and unmotivated I was. You are absolutely right when it comes to organization!!! Had I been more organized and strategized my studying, I wouldn't have been so stressed in the end praying to the lord I passed that class lol..btw it was such an excruciating 3 days of waiting for grades to post. Self care is also SO important, exercising and eating well have made such a huge difference. Thanks for reminding me that this isn't impossible, here's to starting fresh in my peds/OB rotations!!! :)

This is probably the BEST video I found on n this subject! THANK YOU!!!!

You’re sooo amazing and I’m happy you made this video

Thank you Alexis I needed to hear this. I will be reapplying to nursing school this summer. I didn't get into Nursing school last year because of my teas score was not high enough for my school. I just re took it 1 week ago and I got a 85%

Thank you! I needed this

I needed this, thank you!!

Best video ever I needed to hear this. Thank you so much for this video.

Im about to start nursing school and im kind of terrified😅 Pray for me yall lol

Thank you so much for this. It really helped get over my fear of nursing school

The video I didn’t know I needed. Thank you beautiful 🤍

I totally agree that the hardest part about nursing school is the workload! You have so much to learn in so little time and it can be so overwhelming. The material is really not too bad if you study enough

I LOVE your videos!! You really do help keep me going when I’m struggling trying to get into these schools!!! What nursing school did you go to? How long did it take you to get into/ finish everything for your BSN? I also want to be in the labor & delivery department! I eventually want to become a nurse midwife!

Start my lvn in the spring found your video excited and nervous

Hey Alexis! Im in my last semester of nursing school and I 10000% agree with everything you said!!! Can you do a video on what to expect/how to get the most out of practicum?! I currently work as a tech on Mother/Baby and start my practicum next month (hopefully on M/B too).

Thank you sooooo much I really appreciate it 💖💖💖!

Currently retaking 3rd semester of nursing! Thanks for this video ❤️
