Dang you are killin' it! For now I've dropped the CNA course and will focus on Micro. But in the meantime I'm applying at a facility that offers free CNA training over a longer course of time. If it happens that I get in, I'll probably try and juggle/manage everything like you did.

You are so sweet! I needed that ?

Hi, that's a relief to know! It sounds like that's the smarter/less stressful route. Thank you!

Fortunately, becoming a CNA isn't required for the program; it would just afford 1 additional point towards the application. I could take the CNA in the fall, but I was interested in getting a few months experience before entering the program in the Spring. I think you're right and I should stay focused on just micro for now. I've heard it's a lot of information to process in just 8 weeks. Thank you for your input! ?

Since I've exhausted my family with this topic and still haven't come to a conclusion, could you guys help me out? I'm currently working FT, and only have one pre-req. (micro during Summer term) to go before I can apply for the RN program (Spring 2022). I'd like to get some health care experience under my belt before entering the program, and my only option is to take the CNA course this Summer along with micro. My dilemma is, do I quit my FT job and take on both of these 8 week courses concurrently or is that a recipe for disaster and unrealistic? I'm currently in a position where I am able to quit my job for a few months and not worry about an income. I would love anyone's input as I'm super indecisive and my enrollment deadline is in a few short days!
