To narrow your nursing school choices, I think first you need to look at what you can afford and then consider whether you have completed all your prerequisites for that school.

The nursing school does not matter. What matters is that you pass the NCLEX and attain your RN license. Also, having work experience in a hospital helps while applying for a new nursing job. Therefore, while in nursing school try to obtain a nurses aid, patient care tech, or unit clerk position in an area that you like. If interested in the ED, try and become a volunteer EMT.

If your mind is already set on nursing, the best route to go would be the CRNA or NP route. Nursing is more flexible with more room to advance than going the PA route.

Best of luck in your future!:grad:

It's no so much the school that will make a good nurse, it's more the individual. No matter where you go, it's all up to you to make the best of your education and experience.

Enjoy becoming what you want to be...a nurse.

Thank you for your response, as you say its rally the individual and not the school. I can be what I want to be through hard work and self determination.
