Full Time Work, Part Time School?

It's very doable. Most of us have done it. It can become all consuming, but you'll still find personal time. Nursing likes research papers. Those are the time suck although I used to set aside a couple of days per semester to knock them out.

I'm doing school and work both full-time currently. That has included clinical hours. I would say full-time work and part-time school should also be doable. If you aren't a planning person, become one now. It'll help tremendously to have a plan to adhere to in advance in regards to how you're going to allocate your time, rather than just go on the fly. Stay on top of things and make sure to accomplish each day what you wanted to. You can't survive without time management and organization.

That is exactly what I did my first 2 1/2 years of NP school, and it was very doable. But during my last 1 1/2 years, when I had tons of clinical classes, I had to go down to two-12's, and that was on the weekends. That left the week days open for school requirements. It was hard work but very doable.
