Thanks everyone for your advice. I've been talking to my sister who went through the same thing, and I think I'm just going to finish up with bio and try to get in an Accelerated program so I'll start calling around soon. Thanks again!!

Thanks for the reply! I started out nursing and decided I wanted to be an MD after my first semester. After doing internships, I realize that nurses are the ones to show empathy to the patients and they have more patient contact than the MDs (from what I've experienced). I went through a CNA course when I was in HS, and worked under Rn's during an internship. I've always known I wanted to go into medicine/health, I've just always been confused on what aspect. The more I get into BIO, the less interested I become. It's not because I'm getting discouraged, I'm doing fairly well in my studies and I'm almost done. It just makes it harder when you realize you're not doing what you really want to do. I'm still confused on how I want to pursue nursing. I don't know if I should just finish my BS or try a different route.

Hello all.. I am new to this site, but I've been looking around for some time now and finally decided to join :wink2:. I am currently pursuing a BS in Biology. I have about a year left but I am considering nursing. When I first went to school, nursing was my first choice but I decided against it after my first semester. I wanted to finish my BS and apply to an accelerated nursing program but lately I've lost my motivation to study BIO. I really want to get into nursing now but I don't know the best way to go about it. I thought about LPN. Any advice?
