Highschool Student Discouraged

I dont think there is anything wrong with taking your prerequisites at a junior college. If your goal is a BSN then you can take the prereq's at the JC and transfer to the state university. If you are in California by the way, the the CSU's and UC's are getting harder and harder to get into. You can always start at a JC, do the prereq's and then apply for the 2 year programs and then move on to a BSN. Either way, not getting into a 4 year university is not going to harm your career.

You should really just try to finish your RN or BSN before you even think about those Advance nursing.

I agree. Get your BSN done for and work for a while. It will be a long.. way towards that CRNA. 4 years BSN, a few years clinical work (preferably Critical Care) and a bit of luck and determination.

And there are other specialties out there that you can gain love in.

If you don't get into a CSU and go to a JC instead, you can hopefully pull up your overall GPA making it easier to transer to a state university. AND it costs less. So if you get into the CSU, great! If you don't, you still have a great opportunity through a JC.

Either way, all you can do is try and do your best. If that doesn't get you where you want to be, then you reassess what your options are and shift your plans a bit. Plans and goals are what get you going in a direction and that's a good thing. But since you haven't been where you are going, you may find along the way that there's a better destination for you. So get started on your journey. You'll either reach your goal eventually, or turn off on another path for a different but also rewarding and satisfying goal.

Your adventure is just starting (scary but exciting)!
