Thank you everyone for responding to my post I am currently at Northwestern College. Because I received a 60.7 on the teas exam and the city colleges where I originally wanted to go with full for the fall semester so i didnt have a chance to retest. So because I wanted to be in school so bad I jumped on going to Northwestern for their 2 year RN program. The only class that I need it for them is microbiology so that's what I'm in currently. And I will be starting fundamentals in January

Thank you for your response!!! I've never heard for postage learning so I will look in to it.

Thank you I do believe that is where I should so

I am VERY CONFLICTED! I feel like I'm driving myself crazy about school. I just received my assiocate degree in science from the city COLLEGES. There nursing program is very competitive. And I just really don't want to attend a 2-year school for 4-years! I need 4 more classes to attend Resurrection University. Life span, micro, gen chem, stat! 3.1gpa. They would not allow me to take the classes only the ones I needed to complete a degree😭😢😭 I will be 25 in a month, I have a young son 4years old. And I am very anxious to GET IN a program and GET OUT so that I can start living my life! School has consumed me for the last two years! I WANT THIS FOR CHILD'S FUTURE and MYSELF. I eat, breathe, sleep nursing and looking for what is best for us and our schedule. So I will need evenings and weekends. I'll break down the school I'm looking into and the reasons why. I really need some help advice, and encouraging words from the nursing community right now. Caan: lpn. 15months. Evenings. Start july 17. (Which starts sooner, which is a plus) Tabe. test score high school level. Resurrection University: bsn. 20months. Evening weekends. Won't start Jan 2018(till I complete those 4 classes which is one more semester 4more month)ati teas. score of 68% Rasmussen (Romeoville/Joliet ): Rn/Adn 15months. Flexible classes. (Because i have all but 2 prereqs it's 15months.) Start I believe (sept or oct 2017) Ati teas 65% Chamberlain College of Nursing Tinley Park: 2 years. Classes anywhere from 8am to 5pm. (Which is a no on the morning classes son has school at 8am) Start Aug 28. HESI 73% At this point I'm just mentally drained I don't know where to go there so many options I'm just so conflicted and I hope I'm not alone in this situation. At this point I don't even have many friends because I'm so focused on my education and improving my life for my child that nothing else matters! That why I really just have to get in done. You know the saying "my heart is heavy" literally "my mind is heavy" with this decision. I seriously believe I am starting to have headaches🤕 thinking about this 24 hours a day! day in and day out. I'm on every forum, every nurse site, every nursing school page. reading and reading and reading!!! Sleepless nights like this one! Up writing and think about nursing school. This is very overwhelming to the point I just want to break down and cry 😣😣😪😢😢😭😭😭
