Is it really as bad as they say?

I have become just a little discouraged with the nursing school, everywhere I read people say how hard it is and how demanding, my question is I work full time can I do it? Is it really as bad as people make it out to be, any relpies would be great.

I, unfortunately have no choice but to work full time, I am the bread winner and it sucks, in addition school is also full time but I have some pre-req's to handle before I can take my nursing courses and I am going for the Associates first.

After re-reading your posts, are you going to work full-time and go to school? Just want to clarify.

Specializes in Critical Care, ER.

So you see, here you have 2 very different opinions with 2 different methods that have been successful for each. What you may conclude, is that each person has a different path that works for them. I say find your own path, and trust your own voice... especially the one that is telling you that you will be fullfilled in this career. Everything else is debatable. ;)

honestly, i dont think it is. Nursing is critical thinking and common sense. That comes naturally to me, i was never one of those 3.99999999999999 GPA students who memorize everything on a page from a book and get an A on every test. However, jsut b/c nursing school isnt structured like anything eles, i find myself excelling b/c the tests require you to think. Not cram and memorize. As far as working going, i would say it is possible... IF your job allows you to be able to study while your there. Thats the only reason it has worked for me thus far.
