No, she is wrong. A neuron (also called a nerve cell) is a cell that processes and transmits electrical impulses. It has several parts, with one of them being the axon, a long projection that the neuron uses to transmit the impulses to other neurons or cells.
A nerve is a bundle of such axons in the peripheral nervous system. It contains parts of many neurons (the axons), but not entire neurons itself.

So a nerve is not a neuron.
Ohhhhh, okay! Damn, nervous system is a complicated topic! Thanks for the help though!
