Only do nursing if it is something you really want to do.

Many countries now except male nurses. USA is under retrogression and currently several years wait for a visa if you are lucky.

Not really, paths in life can change all the time but the only way to go forward is take a risk and move forward. Only you can make the decision on what to do with your life

I am 100% agree thats way i asked thos questions to know more about the subject

it will really helped if i can get thos answer from experience nurses like yourself

As a child and young adult I didn't have a burning desire to be a nurse in fact I wanted to do something in the beauty industry. Anyhow I won't bore you with the long version but did do nurse training and looking back after 21 years since I started can say it has for the most part been good and varied. It's not for everyone and you have to be prepared for the stress of the job itself and unsocial hours etc. It is satisfying and deeply frustrating at times and is not for everyone but only you can decide that. I would echo Silverdragons advice and discourage you against doing nurse training if the underlying motive is to obtain a US GC - I would be taking my chances with the diversity lottery instead.

Nursing school for me was a struggle but I enjoyed it, when I was a student nurse the training programme is very different from todays. I was employed by the hospitals school of nursing and it was actually a job and on clinical placements I was included in the staff numbers and had to work nights weekends etc. This gave me a realistic picture of what was expected of my when I qualified. Of course along side this was all the written essay assessments as well as exams, which wasn't easy. In the UK now nurse training is different, it is university based and you are not included in staff numbers on clinical placements. I have no idea how this compares to the training in Russia, but just wanted to tell you my experience.

I would say it has the potential to be well paid depending on how much you are prepared to put into advancing your career.
