Overwhelmed!

A lot people here have ft jobs and young children so if you have neither then there's no reason why you can't manage your course load. Many people who go to nursing school don't have 4.0 gpa's but you should of course do the best that you can and if that ends up being 4.0 all the way then that's kool. If you put in the time and use tutors when you need to then you should get through this stage of the journey successfully and move on to stage 2 - nursing student. Good luck.

You won't know until you try!! The worst that will happen is that you'll find out you can't, then you'll have to drop a class and try again later. Although, I'm currently taking both anatomy and microbiology together and I'm surviving...AND I have 4 kids under the age of 10 Good luck!!

Thanks for the input.

Listening to everyone (who have kids, who work ft/pt, etc) makes me feel silly for even being concerned!

If you're insane for trying to take that on, I must be completely certifiable.

It's been almost 10 years since I last took a real college class, I'm working full time as a corporate paralegal, am married, have a teenager, AND I'm planning to take A&P 2 and Micro in the Fall.

Are you insane? Of course not. But it's completely understandable that you're nervous. It's a big step, and that kind of life change always brings a little panic. I think the trick is to use that nervous energy to focus on your studies, and keep looking toward your goals.

Just think of how amazing you'll feel after having accomplished so much! You can do it!

I def think you can do it! other ppl on here have mentioned this before but ppl work ft and have kids.. so work hard and time mgmt is key.. ! Best of Luck I'm sure you will do great
