I'm just curious....most of the nursing students in my courses are about my age....29 give or take a few years...lol....but I was told that the daytime students are a lot younger.

"RN to be in 2004"

Not quite sure how this works, but here goes anyway.

I am 27, will be 28 in a couple of months, working slowly on my LPN, to turn around and go back to school for my RN , to BSN to MSN. Since the last three steps are going to be part time studies instead of full time like i am now, figured out that i will be 42 years old when i have finally reached my goal :) but oh well it will all be worth it in the end........right?????

I just turned 25 on the 11th of March so now I can join this club :)

Hello all!! I'm 29 and will be the big 3-0 on May 11. 1st year ADN with 3 kids and a husband (so 4 kids!). Our youngest will begin kinder when I graduate!!

Happy 25th Birthday Brownbetty!!!!!

RN 2B in 2004....and I'll still be 29!!!

I'm 30 (I'll be 31 in July). I'm going for my ADN, and I will be done in Dec. 2004, so I will be 33-1/2 when I'm done!!

I turned 25 this December and am graduating in May, YEAH!!!!!. Only 3 more Peds clinicals, 5 more Maternity clinicals, and exam, a final, 2 lab CEs and a ton of stress to go.

I am 30, in a large LPN class....out of 65 that originally started, there were only about 4 out of high school. I think the "non-traditional" student (us old folks!) are quickly becoming the norm.

I personally feel that I am a much better student now than I was when I originally starting college at 18, even being a single mom with 2 young kids. Most of us older students are more dedicated.

Good luck to you!.

Congratulations Huggietoes!!!.....I know that you are soooo excited about graduating!!!! :roll

Jvilleredhead,

I totally agree......there are only 2 nursing students that are straight out of HS in my evening classes. The rest of the students are my age (29) give or take a few years. I agree about being dedicated. I have given so much time to my family, and don't get me wrong I'll continue to give...but I have to dedicated more to time to developing me....:D \
