Is working full time plus nursing school full time harder than full time mom plus nursing school full time? I heard a lot of people say that its really hard to work full time and do nursing classes full time. But in my case i dont have to work. Im a stay at home mom and recently decided to go back to school take nursing major. I have my doubts, i know nursing classes plus clinicals takes lots of work. But if anyone done it, then i know its possible.
