ok, i made my decision! i enrolled in a local college and am starting my pre-req's for my rn in 1 week. scared? you bet! i am 50 this year and my classes are filled with 20 somethings. makes me feel old. but i saw a billboard that had a pic of a woman and it said she graduated college at 92!! figured if she could do it, so could i! wish me luck and lots of sleep! (i'll need it!)

You're never too old to fulfill your life....you bring a different perspective, and lots of patients do welcome the different view from the younguns...plus as a new grad, they'll think you've been a nurse forever!

Congratulations!!!

I am a 20 something going to school with classes filled with 40 somethings, so I too feel a little out of place.

Good for you and good luck in your classes!
