MA class was too easy

Hey does anyone else feel that theri Ma program was almost too easy?? I didn't even have to study and I would pass the tests, I graduated with staright As and I didn't really have to give too much effort the whole year through. Just wondering about every one else because I feel that anything that is too easy, or seems too good to be true, you have to question.

Re: MA class was too easy

It did not seem like it at the time, but now that I am in nursing school and I compair it to MA school, MA school was a walk in the park in compairson, but at the time it was hard because I had no medical experience in the past other than taking a tempature!

Re: MA class was too easy

My program was easy, but I'm sure it was due to the fact that I worked as a Nursing Tech for 5 years before MA school. The only clasI really learned anything nwe in was the pharmacology class.

Im in the medical assistant classes yea most arent bad but i feel like im still learning new things everyday. Maybe because im 21 and its my first real medical classes besides highschool haha ..I like it alot though.

Re: MA class was too easy

You have to remember that M.A.'s are trained to do technical skills and nurses are trained to use critical thinking and theory. Big difference. And there is a place for both in the health care industry.
