Downvoted for confidently misinterpreting virtually everything I wrote.

The first is that I think you're empirically wrong - I think Swimmer963 will make an excellent nurse.

I am sure she will. My point was that she might not be as good at one specific part of it, internalizing Type 2 as Type 1, as those who are natural at it. There is much more to nursing than this.

it tends to undermine or second-guess a difficult choice that someone has made after the fact

What I really said:

if down the road you would be better off finding a career which plays more to your strengths

I would expect her to work as a nurse for a number of years and then reevaluate her options if the level of stress is too much.

I did make one mistake though, I confused ICU with ER.
