For those who don't know me...I was going to school to become a RN. Well, I was having problems in school & just felt that my heart wasn't in it. At the end of last semester (April) I decided to change my major because I didn't get through A&P (once again). I figured there was no need in wasting money and time for something that I knew in my heart, I wasn't going to succeed in. So now my major is Legal Assistant/Paralegal (totally different field huh?). I'm excited to start back school this Fall semester and have a new beginning. Good luck to all of you and I wish u nothing but the best. :)

I'm 19 years old. I started college in the Fall of 2003. I loved it at first, but now i'm starting to feel lost and confused about being a RN. This didn't happen until I started A&P1. My instructor wasn't good and I didn't get through it. I'm on academic probation and i'm doing okay in A&P again. I feel like i'm not learning anything of value right now and i'm constantly stressed out. I'm planning on taking CNA training in June, partially because I've always wanted to do it, because I need the money and it seems I can't get a job anywhere else. And sort of because I need something to fall back on if Nursing doesn't work out in my favor. I just feel like I don't know what to do with my life at this point. A part of me wants to be a RN and part of me feels inferior to the other students when they talk about their grades. After completing the CNA training, I have the idea of doing that for a while until I figure out what I want to do (if I want to stay with Nursing or not), but I don't want to disappoint my parents because they have spent all this money on my education. Is it normal to feel this way? Have any of you ever felt like this? Anyone want to exchange emails and help me gain motivation and positivity back? Someone help..

at my community college they only require about 6 or 7 pre requisites. anatomy and physiology is a killer though, but i'm gonna get through it. Good luck everyone!!!!!!
