i was 23 when i became an RN

Specializes in Med/Surg, L&D.

Finished my first, unrelated degree, at 21.

Graduated with my BSN at 25, RN license at 26.

Will have my MSN at 28 or 29 depending on how fast I go through the program (starting next month)

DNP 1-2 years after that.

I hope to be done with school before I am 32! I am exhausted just looking at this.

Specializes in Pediatric/Adolescent, Med-Surg.

Graduated and got my RN at 20

Went back and had my BSN by 22

44. Now I'm 59, working, and love my 8 hour job.

Specializes in Med/Surg, DSU, Ortho, Onc, Psych.

Too old!

I finished study when I was in my 40's but wish I'd done it when I was younger.

I can't bounce back as good as I used to between shifts unfortunately.

If you are going to do any study, try to do it when you are young.

Graduated with my BSN at 20yrs old in April. Started as a GN in May and took and passed the NCLEX in June. Turned 21 in August.

gosh...that seems like soooooo long ago.

Specializes in psych nursing.

I was 30 when I recieved my RN-ADN, probably will be 34 or 35 when I get my BSN.

Specializes in CDI Supervisor; Formerly NICU.

41 when I graduated with my ADN. Considering/trying to talk myself into going back for my RN-BSN (which my hospital will pay for, through an association with UT-Arlington, all online). I'd like to eventually get my MSN, but I am so, so burned out with nursing school. Haven't recovered yet.
