I call upon The Wise Ones for their assistance....


Yes, this means you!

Here's the short version... I'm 21, a college senior finishing my bachelor's in biology. Was pre-med, decided no me gusta, realized I had all the nursing pre-reqs anyways, decided what the hey, now want to get into nursing.

So my question to you lovelies is, once I finish my BA in Biology should I apply for the BSN clinical program at the state university I'm already at, or should I go to the community colleges in the area for the ADN? I'm leaning towards the BSN route because I like how it potentially gives me more options in the long run, and I can be honest enough with myself to know that I will not be feeling "going back to school" to get my BSN when I'm older.

If you were in a similar situation, what would you do?

Many thanks oh Wise Ones!
