Just a quick question...
I'm currently in the process of enrolling, well competing for enrollment, into LPN school. I'm working on the questions we were given to answer as part of out application...and am sort of stuck.

One of the questions is:
"Nursing is a conservative profession with high standards. Why do you think you would be a good fit for the profession?"

Now, I in no way want anyone to answer the question for me. I want very much to do this all on my own. I'm just curious if anyone could offer some enlightment or explanation to the "conservative profession" part. Conservative has so many definitions in the dictionary, not to mention it's political relation, that I'm at a loss exactly what the questioners intended meaning was.

Thanks a bunch to any that reply!!
