So guys, I dont know if you follow but ive been encouraging those that want to pursue nursing as this is a goal ive had for myself. I understood the difficulties and discouraging acts that come from others because their heads are so full of *crap*.
So guys i found a private college, applied, webt through a little scuffle- studied/ preexam and such, and got in. I admit it was Alittle too good to be true, i mean I was going straight for my bachelor's, everything was planned but I just lost it, i dont know if its because ive been in college so long and im just tired and ready to just begin my life...its also distractions from different kinds of people, as I began to kind of slip, i just went down a spiral and since I wasnt very interactive with others ( which I didnt reqlly feel connected anyway ) I guess it made me even more with a downfall.
I'm kind of relieved to be out there though because I felt uncomfortable around the fellow students, I dont know if it's a normal thing but I felt kind of invaded, like people peering & staring and stuff ? yeah its kindve a win/win situation...
So yeah even though prerequisites and things I think I might lower my medical education, to maybe phlebotomy or licensed practical nursing, so i can began quicker and finally get myself together and then later on in my life, finish, and after all isnt it more about studying and pursuing rather than all about pay? To me it's like we are studying just to pass without really studying the way we want.
I could not survive a 4 year BSN program. Nursing school is just draining. The most I could've dedicated to nursing school was 12 months (and even then it was too long). I couldn't imagine studying nursing for 4 years LOOOOOOOOOONG.
Props to those who did the traditional program. I practically gave up my 3rd semester of my accelerated BSN because I was mentally and socially exhausted. I even wrote about it on this very board.
Good luck with whatever you do. Nursing isn't the be all end all in health care. Have you thought about medical assistant? I did that for 3 years and really enjoyed it...but I wanted to make more money hence the clinical ladder.
What nursing program did you end up doing? Just curious because I know I wouldn't be able to survive a 4 year BSN program. I'm looking into ADN programs right now...

You might want to do some more research into what an ADN program entails because many of them are going to end up taking you 3+ years and the nursing course portion isn’t any easier than a BSN because the state requirements for RNs are the same either way.
