Guess I really won't know until I take it LOL
What teachers did you take Anat and physio and micro and Chemistry with? Did the prerequisites give you a good foundation to build upon?

Mine says the exact same! I'm so anxious! Good Luck to us both ?

Thanks for this information. My status changed as well just recently. Says the exact same thing as yours. My last name starts with a W. What does yours start with? I'm having a nervous breakdown too. Been in tears. Ugh! Agonizing waiting for status updates. ?

It’s funny you say that because I been having dreams about having to make a hard decision and the only hard decision I’d have to make is whether or not to keep my job or pursue nursing. Before it was an easy decision but my job is saying I may be moved onto the team I wanted to be on, we’ll just have to play it by ear, as getting into the program or moving teams hasn’t happened!
Yea, and when the "budget cuts" happen, guess who's on the chopping block?? stick with nursing. I hope you get in... With nursing, you will never have to worry about getting laid off and the money is good too. you should keep your job, and get that promotion you have been wanting, but do the nursing if you are able to. Good luck!

My job requires me to relocate in September cannot keep both. Also unfortunately it’s not a promotion, it’s more of a lateral job change. I don’t foresee the company I work for ever cutting us or what not, we work on one of the most successful game franchises. The pay is kind of ehh, it’s more so I’d feel bad getting put on a team I wanted and then just quitting a few months later and then that team is back in the position they were in before, being short people.

Oh! got it!! well, yea I can see why you would feel bad, but you have to do what makes sense to you, and quite frankly, money talks the rest walk! I'm contemplating on making some serious changes as well, and it will affect a few people, but I have to do what makes sense to me and for my family. In 40 years, I may end up relying on today's earned income (should I become an RN) to get me thru my retirement years. It's all about you and of course kids/spouse. (don't know if you have one or both)

yea, so then def. get your RN now.. you basically responsible for yourself till you have kids/spouse etc. get it done and go as far as you can educationally so that when you are ready for a family, you won't have to worry about education/money. You will be that far ahead. You will actually be able to enjoy life with your kids/partner and not have much to worry about.

I don’t want kids personally, but would like a partner.
