Regarding to their education the majority of both of them (75%, 55%) had high school (Regular) respectively.as well as all Benha and Hail nursing students (100%) were studied computer before. While, more than two third (62%) of Benha students studied it in high school and, more than two third (66%) of Hail nursing students had studied computer before in college/ preparatory year.
