Need Serious Advice
Thank you for posting. I liked this point, I never even thought about it too much and I completely understand that it's very important. My head is full with questions and I am looking for an insight someone can give me knowing the rough picture which is: I am planing to change my job and travel every 2 years to different countries, because that is what a military spouse life is (my future husband-to be is military). I was thinking it would help me to have a profession which is in demand pretty much everywhere in the world. I want to be able to secure a job either paid or unpaid in order to build experience and to get out of the house. I do have passion for nursing and I am confident in my skills. I have another option where I can get a master's degree in a different field and go that direction, but there is no job security. Thank you for understanding.

Where if not here is the best place to ask nurses- I'm a 30 y.o female, planing to get a degree in nursing. I would have to do about 4 years of school in order to get an Associate in Nursing. I keep hearing that nursing is hard, both school and labs, and that one needs a LOT of time to commit to studies. Basically, you don't have a life if you do that. That does not scare me, I only want to get an honest advise from those who has been doing it on top of changing their life- I'm planning to get married and have at least a child during the nest 4 years. I would like to both enjoy my marriage and mother life and not stress out so much that I lose my mind or to not be able to give enough attention to my family. Please do let me know if ADN degree is worth it? Thank you!

Thank you Opalbee, what is the name of your school? I contacted the school I am interested in (mostly, because of affordability) and we will most likely set up a video call to get some details... However, they replied to my initial e-mail with something like their nursing program is very competitive. I do not know if i have all the resources to do this. They did tell me that it may take me 3-4 years to get the degree I want because of the pre-reqs. I am not sure if I could financially afford this...

Hello All. I am thinking of a drastic career change- from business administration to nursing. I am 28 y.o right now and it is not the age that scares me (because I think I'm more mature and motivated and ready to concentrate on studies) but it is the Math and Chemistry... -_-that I was told I will have to take before I start nursing program. How well do I need to know both of them to be able to start pre-nursing course? Can i pass with high school transcripts? I wish to get Associates degree, but with this pre-nursing program, does it mean It will take me like 3 years to get there? Please don't judge, I am from a country that has a completely different education system than in the states and I am a little lost in requirements, and stages, and everything. Thank you so much!
