Hello there!
I am 21 and just got accepted into a nursing program :) to receive my LPN. I am a very determined person and I know I am going to get my RN afterwards. Well i have been reading a lot of these forums and a lot of people are saying that you should be a CNA before you try to tackle being a nurse (which, granted is always good, of course). So I'm kinda worried now! I mean I know nursing school is going to be extremely hard and I am getting myself ready for that. Everyone keeps telling me it is going to be very hard, and are you sure you can do it. YES! I feel like I am the only one who believes in myself. I want to believe that I can do it, and I'm going to give it all I can! No, I was not a CNA..but I need encouragement that I can still do this!! Are there any other LPN's, RN's out there that didn't have any experience before entering the health field , I mean I know there is...so let me know what you think please.
Thanks,
Farah
P.S. I forgot to mention I have taken all my prerecs such as, micro and anatomy and so for. Maybe that will help me some ?
