people in philippines take up nursing

Hi jaycee! :) I'm a nursing student, and you see, I am just persuaded by my mother and other relatives to take up nursing so that I could earn a lot by the time that I reach the employment age. Before, I have hated the fact that I have to take up a course that I don't want but you see, when classes started, I learned that most of my classmates have grabbed the opportunity because: --they get a discount at my school because of their high grades (therefore, it is cheaper than taking up other courses) --their (our) relatives are the ones paying for the tuition fee and therefore we have no choice but to obey them and take the course and --it is the best pre-med course because you can be very versatile when time comes these are most of the reasons why me and my classmates were taking the same course..

Basically because majority of them wants to go abroad. I was amazed as well when I came home to find out that nursing course is one of the in-demand courses here. My reason for taking a nursing course is pursue a good profession and go back to the UK and offer my service to the country.
