First step complete!

Published

I have finished the first step for me to start school, I took the last two test of the GED last night!! I quit school for social reasons and still regret it, but am glad I finally got around to getting my diploma...

My scores on the first three tests were 800, 800 and 680! I was shocked!!:yeah:

These last two tests were math and writing. I feel pretty confident about my scores, but doubt I'll get a perfect score on Math... totally fine with me! I feel so great getting this done...

I would like to try to find a Nursing Assistant job to start gaining some experience while I'm taking my generals and such. I'm not sure yet what if any kind of waiting list there is at the community college I'll be going to... As soon as I get my final results I'm going to talk to an advisor to see what steps I need to take.

I'm so excited!! My ultimate goal would be to work in Post-Partum at a hospital.... I know that's a long-term goal so at first I'll settle for whatever comes my way. :)

Looking forward to taking the next step!

Congratulations! Don't be shocked about doing well on the GED, just because you quit school early, doesn't mean you're not smart enough to succeed! I'm sure you did great on the math and science.

Throw yourself a little celebration. Every step counts in this journey.

That's great! I just enrolled into a nursing assistant program. I'm really looking forward to all the things I'll be learning. Best of luck to you!:anpom:
