Just to refresh you all I was given a second chance to take the NET this past July 15th....mainly because I came very close to passing the first one I took. Well....I passed!!!! :roll . I am sooo happy....I thought I was going to start pulling my hair out....lol. There is a hook to this though...I have to decide which program I want to enter...the evening/weekend program in Jan. 2004 or the full-time day program in Sept. 2004......:eek: . The thing is honestly don't know what to do. I'm going to e-mail one of the counselors to find out just exactly what kind of hrs. the evening entails....also if I do start in the evening for the first semester can I switch to day in the second semester. There is a lot that I have to consider, I am married with 4 children (2 of them are school aged). And then on the one hand...I don't want to have to wait another whole year....but if I want to attend school in the day time..maybe I should. I was planning on taking phlebotomy and getting certified in that. I don't know...it's so much to decide. Anyway thanks to everyone for all the supportive advice and cyber hugs while I was going through all the drama with my CC.

Hugs,

Fatima

Fatima, so glad you finally got your letter too! I don't think I could wait any longer, but I know its a decision YOU have to make, to do whatever is best for you and your family. Whatever your decision, it will probably be the best one. Follow your heart, and listen to your gut instincts!

Congratulations again!

Way to go Fatima, keep us updated..

First, I wanted to thank everyone for their supportive words and encouragement. I love this board soooo much!!!!! I did come to a decision. I am going to opt for the September 2004 program. Part of me doesn't want to go this route...but the bigger part of me knows this makes the most sense. If I go to school during the day...my ds's can still be in day care and I'll be able to stay at school and study or come home. I'm only going to have one class a day so it may just work out. Then I'll also have the evening to study also while my dh is at school. Also I'll still be here for my dd's with their homework, projects, PTO meetings, etc. Sooooo I'm going to have to wait an entire year....again.....but at least I know I'll definitely be starting my nursing program...:roll . So I guess I'm going to be member of the class of 2006!!!!

CONGRATS! I'm so excited for you! I hope I can be posting a message like this come springtime! :)
