collegegirl, I'm not big on posting stuff but, I'm posting now because your situation is identical to what I went through. I am currently in my 3rd semester of a 2 year community college R.T. program. I wanted nursing bad, but in my area pretty rural area there was a 3 year wait for R.N. program, so I chose to do the R.T. route(same pre req's) I don't think you will waste your time going with R.T. for the moment, it is also my understanding they now have a RRT to RN bridge. I won't go into who makes more or has more oppurtunities we all know REALITY! I have fun at my clinicals and have some really good folks around me, I have had many RN's help me with stuff. The Nursing field is great and will always be there for you, but if you need a career now then go with the R.T. program. Just don't take it as a easy way out, I have had a few Nursing program drop outs in my class, notice I said HAD. Yep they failed out of R.T. too. Go with your heart no one on here knows you better then you, Good Luck Jeff RT student c/o 2011
