I'll either be 25 (if I go for my ADN) or 27 (if I go for my BSN) when I graduate. It will be my second degree.

Assuming I start in Fall of '08, I will be 52 when I finish my RN/BSN. Probably will have a few more gray hairs by then. :)

From what I hear about nursing school I think even us 20 something's are going to grow the grays!! :lol2:

I will be 43 and the mother of a 3 y/o.

My sister asked one day (when I was deciding whether to go to school or not), " How old are you going to be in 3 yrs?" I said,"43". She asked, "How old will you be in three years if you go to school?" I said, "43". She said, "What's the problem than? Either way you are still going to be 43, so why not go for it and be 43 with a degree." :idea:So needless to say, I am currently in school and though I must say it begrudgingly (lol), my big sister is right and I thank her for encouraging me to follow my dream. Thanks Suzy!!! :lol2:
