5. which would be easier.

   theconfusedone replied to baileeb's topic in General Students

   I think it would be best to go straight for the BSN. If you can't do that go for the ADN and if can't do that go for LPN. Aim for the highest level that you can do first it will save you time and money in the long run.

11. What is best? Living at home or getting an apartment while in nursing??

    theconfusedone replied to Stargazn03's topic in General Students

    Ultimately you should do what feels right. I was in a similar situation. I was living on my own and I loved it. When I decided to go to nursing school I made the difficult decision to move back in with my parents. I did not want to deal with the stre...
