Hi all, I finally have decided to post on here due to my current situation. This is my a summary of my current situation. I am currently attending a 4 year college to get my BSN. But it is not going as it should. I am now seriously regretting going to college that I am currently attending. Especially now that I am off track due to a crappy professor which made me withdraw from the course. It is a required prerequisite for the nursing program (chemistry). My advisor is working hard to get me to stay at the school. Which I am grateful for but I am scared of having to stay there for an extra year and pay more money which I don't want to do (it is high up there in price). Depending on if I can take the second chemistry class next semester and take one over the summer at a community college to make up for the one I withdrew from, I most likely will stay at the school. This would allow me to stay on track in the nursing program. The thing is now that I have thought about it, I am regretting my decision to go to that college. Things just haven't been working out for me it seems. The college is pricey. The students that attend there (especially nursing and pre-med students) are stuck up and know it alls. I feel like I do not fit in. Is it even worth staying at the school? I do want to become a nurse and get my BSN but I am seriously considering just saying F it to the whole thing and just going to get my ADN. Is this something I should do? I know a lot of places are requiring nurses to have their BSN now, which isn't a problem as I would do a bridge program from ADN to BSN. Currently I am a CNA and just landed a PCT position at a busy hospital in my town which pays good money. I am also considering just taking a break from school to work and to focus on myself as well as just live life. I am sorry about this long fiasco of a post but I just do not know what to do. Has anyone else been in a situation like mine? Should I stay at the college or just go to a community college? Is it worth just getting my ASN and start working as an RN while pursuing my BSN? Do you recommend taking a break from school? I assess the situation from a financial view as well. I need to work during school to pay for my bills (I come from a single parent who is struggling due to health issues). Is becoming an RN through ASN track a better option for me? Like I said, I am sorry for the messy post and for stuff being all over the place but I just need advice. I do not know what to do. I truly want to become a nurse but I just feel so down and trapped right now I do not know what to do. Any advice would be great. If you have questions please let me know. Thanks
