Can't make a decision

[Brianna West]

Hey everyone. I already have a bachelors in health sciences but I am struggling with which route to take. I don't know if I should do an accelerated program or just go back to the same college I graduated from and try to get in their nursing program. My issue is with accelerated programs, they're so expensive and I don't know if it's worth being in that much debt but the fact that I already have a bachelors is making me wanna go the accelerate route because I've already been in school long enough. Regardless of which route I take I do have to retake anatomy. I just don't know what to do and it's stressing me out. I was even offered the chance to do a masters accelerated program.

Well, better late than never!

I attempted to do ABSN a few years ago, which was 12-month program. It was not too expensive as I went to a public senior college. It was a lot of work, I will tell you that! Even though I did well in my classes, I got so ill physically and mentally that I had to quit, with only 4 months before graduation! 

I do regret that decision now, but oh well. I may try again in the future...

However, before you decide which route to take...ask:

1. What is more important: to finish the degree as soon as possible, or take time and learn thoroughly where you do not feel like you are rushed and cannot even take a breath (that was me!)?
