How old were you when you began nursing school?

Published

Just out of curiosity - how old where you when you started nursing school and what kind of school did you go to before - i.e. high school, four year college, 2 year, etc.?

Personally, I am graduating with my BA in psychology in May and entering an ASN program in September so I will be 22.

I turned 27 just after I started taking pre-reqs and I should be 30 right before I graduate with an ADN--as long as I pass everything!!
