I have searched high and low for an honest unbiased answer, to no avail. I need to get started on becoming a nurse. I've started at a community college last week, but was accepted to a real university the day after.
I have speant hundreds of hours since then looking for an honest answer and an honest person. Can somebody please tell me which is the right route?
Im going around in circles, everyone says how great and wonderful the AS program is, for the same reason, because you can work and pursue your BA at the same time. Well, if the AS program is so great and wonderful, than why would you even WANT to get a BA.
I have a day to decide. I dont know what to do. Why does everyone who have an AS want to get a BA?
Please tell me the secret behind the AS, what is so bad about it that everyone wants to change it? I have the chance to do either, but am completely lost. Im sick of hearing the same response, don't tell me that the AS is good because you can get a BA after. I want to know, if I get a AS degree will I find a good job?
I want to work at a really nice hospital, one of the best in the world. The hospital in question is Stanford. Would I need a BA for this? Do the nicer hospitals give more pay and more benefits?
And money is no option for me, neither is time. I am only 18, so I have plenty of time. I just want to get a GOOD job, and not be stuck with a useless degree.
