i am not in a bsn program but an asn program.......as far as working i have no choice.... i live on my own, however i have no children.... @ my school i attend the evening program.... all that being said i work per diem @ two different hospitals.... i put in about 40+ hours a week working the night shift btw 2 jobs...... i understand the personal preference of wanting to be an "a" student, however what do you call the doctor or nurse even that scored just the minimum on the state boards??? dr so-and-so/ nurse so-and-so right?? my point exactly.... the pass rate for my program is 80% (which is only equal to a "c")..... and just monday i completed my 3rd semester and i'm moving on to my fourth semester and will be finished by christmas!! so working full time and getting thru nursing school can be very stressful, however it is certainly doable!!!!!

I'm in the same situation.....go to class @4 and my lecture are only 1hr & 50 min, then i go stragith to work, @ my hospital I do 12 hr shifts...... then whe I get home in the morning I go straight to bed, and then back to class or clinical depending on the day of the week. I just completed my 3rd semester, and I have 1 more left, it is stressfull, but I have survived this far..
