44-year-old ER veteran uses ChatGPT as a personal tutor to power through nursing school
Chukwithak · reddit · 2026-10-08
A 44-year-old nursing student with 10 years in California's busiest ER shares how he uses ChatGPT for schoolwork: uploading screenshots of course material into a Google Doc, having it build chapter study guides, drill his weak spots with Socratic questioning, and help draft papers and organize assignments. He calls it a personal tutor that remembers weaknesses and is surprised more people don't use AI as a teaching platform.
He also asks about ChatGPT vs Claude: ChatGPT reads his screenshot-filled Doc directly, while Claude only accepts PDFs and renders notes messily, making him reluctant to invest time testing it further.
