Hi everyone...I am an Rn finishing up my BSN through Oklahoma Wesleyan University. I am planning on continuing on with my education by getting a Masters degree. I am torn as to degree plan I want to follow. My choices are 1. ARNP 2. CNS 3. Education. I love different aspects of each of these...so I have yet to decide. (I don't graduate until October). I was wondering if anyone could give me some insite into these choices and help me decide. I have been weighing pros and cons. I also need to figure out where to go as far as which school is best. Any advice is appreciated.
