what is the best ohio nursing college???

[stormer89]

I really want to go into the medical field and want to be a nurse. I really want to know what the best nursing school in the Dayton Ohio area is. I'm considering going to National College to be a Medical Assistant (mainly because it's the closest school to me and I can't drive yet). They do not have a nursing program though. : ( My grandma is really wanting me to go there because that's where her and my grandpa will be able to take me.

I'd like to know the pros and cons of nursing and medical assisting. Any advice would be great.

The following links are lists of LPN and RN education programs in the state of Ohio. There are several schools in and around the Dayton area, I would check out the links and then check the pass rates for NCLEX. I personally would not pursue Medical Assistanting because the pay is low, you have limited mobility and if you decide to go further in school many of credits may not transfer.
