My name is Tina
I've been wanting to be a nurse for a few months now. I have a huge heart & enjoy helping people. I'm also pretty good with caring for others, even when things get bloody or worse. I have so many questions as so what classes I'm supposed to be taking during my 1st semester of junior college. I'm in the middle of signing up and unfortunately no one in my family has graduated from college. We don't have much money or information on how to go about this. But I know it's what I want to do. If anyone can help me with what classes I should be focusing on, I would really be thankful.

Go to the junior college and talk to a counsellor there, they will help you sign up for the pre-nursing classes you need. The admissions office where you applied to the college will be able to help you make an appointment with the appropriate counsellor. Likely they will have you sign up for anatomy & physiology, psychology, and probably some general requirements like english composition. Then go the financial aid office at the Junior College and talk to them about how to finance your education. They will be able to guide you on this and help you apply for any scholarships and grants you may be eligable for.
