BC online?

Published

I was wondering if anyone has taken the RN program online through BC (Broward College)? Any good? What do you think of it??

Being a teacher just wasn't for me. I tried teaching different grades and even became National Board certified thinking that the extra $ would make a difference but it did not. My ultimate goal is to be a midwife so I have to become an RN first to get there. I only want to be a L&D nurse for a little while to get some experience then on to midwifery. But I like the fact that I can work 3 days a week and I'm not with kids all day long. I have 4 of my own. It gets pretty stressful sometimes. Also you have so many more opportunities as a nurse than as a teacher. With teaching that's it - teaching or administration. You have the option of working in a hospital, home health care, at a school, in research. There's lots to choose from within the same arena. I like that. Why did you opt for change?

Wow, we have a great deal in common. Even right down to the 4 kids! I actually though I wrote this post for a minute.

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who didn't enjoy teaching.

Marci,

Nice to know that I'm not crazy. Hubby thinks I am. How old are you kids and what stage are you in the nursing ladder?

My kids are 13, 9, 5 and 2. I finished the first level of an LPN program and then just recently switched to an RN program.
