Hey everyone! I have been on this site religiously trying to obtain as much information as humanly possible. I am a 33 year old fulltime employee, divorced but in a commited relationship, and a mother to a 6 year old. I decided to quit my job and go to school to become an RPN or RN. The thing is, I am a mature student and truth be told, although I am exremely excited, I am scared as hell and wonder what I am getting myself into. I've loved health sciences for as long as I can remember but I suffer from Math anxiety. It freaks me out and I get a mental block. I am writing the CPA test at Georgian College in less than 2 weeks and wanted to know if there were any fellow mature students who wrote the test and if they can explain whether it was easy or difficult, how I can prepare or what to expect. Thank you!!

Good Morning!! I am new to this board. I am not a nurse but I am seeking out my paths to becoming a nurse. A while ago I was donating blood and the RN there told me not to bother with getting a BScN because an RN and an RPN generally have the same line of work but the only difference is pay and debt. I figured I'd reach out to all of you ladies (and gentlemen) to see what you think. Is this true?
