As a college student who is not a nursing major, but is surrounded by friends who are, it is safe to say that I have learned a lot about how they operate. They have their quirks but we love them anyways.

1. They always self-diagnose.

And they're normally right.

2. They are all OBSESSED with Grey's Anatomy.

"Oh I know what that is I just learned about that!", is a common phrase you hear when the show is on.

3. Thirsty Thursday's don't exist for them.

No class on Tuesdays, clinical on Monday and Friday, and various lectures in between. It's a mess.

6. They're always stressed.

9. They can tell you just about everything about certain drugs.

And they mention them in typical conversation.

10. They don't get grossed out by anything.

11. They somehow always end up having four tests in the same week.

Which means you won't see them all week because they'll be in the library all week.
