The reason why I want to start my career ealier is because I'm from a disadvantaged background family . But the main reason is that I have a father that can't wait for me to die and move out of his house. He asked me if i'm 17, i replied that im only 16, and he said "no your 17, and your moving out next year". This really meant a lot to me, and it gave me the idea to start working ealier. However, I have a mother that loveme a lot and always support me. Not that she won't let me go to community college, but I don't want her to be disappointed. Thanks for the advice anyways!

Haha, I think i can handle all the stress and hard works. Thanks anyway

Yeah, I think I'll try to persuade my parents about the two year community college and hopefully they will listen! And thank you so much for all the advices, it really helped a lot!

Hey, thanks for the infos and sorry for the late response

Thank you much for the info! I really want to pursue the 2-year nursing, but I don't think my parents will allow me to go to a community college. Will the CNA program help me get into the 4-year BSN nursing program? And how do you earn the CNA in high school?

Thank you for the info. I'm was planning to apply to CUNY and SUNY schools but they are more competitive, so I'm thinking about a expensive private school. Also many schools like CUNY Hunter have long waiting list. And if prereqs takes that long to finish, then after you get accepted you will have to take another 2 or 4 years of nursing school? If you don't get accepted to the nursing program, then all the two years of pre-reqs for nursing are for nothing?

Thank you sooo much for the information! It almost answered all of my questions. It seems like there's no way you can be a RN at age 20 and from your info, most RN are at least 23 years old? How long does it take to finish all the prerequisite classes? Can i apply to the school as a different major and when school starts, then apply to the pre-nursing major? And how can you earn the CNA?

I know I'm too young to decide my career right now, but I really want to be a RN. I would like to prepare sooner to make it easier later on so I can graduate ealier. So all I have to do right now is to increase my GPA and apply for a school's nursing program? What if i get rejected? Can I apply to a easier major and then apply to nursing program? & Thank you for your help!!

I know about the ADN and BSN, but there are many 4-year universities in my area that have a minimum of 2 year waiting lists. .

I'm currently a junior in high school and I really want to be a RN when I grow up but I'm very confused about the admission to this career. My transcript so far is a 3.0 gpa. I got 65 for trig,90 for bio, and will be taking chemistry and pre-calculus this year. I'm wondering when entering the nursing program, do they look at your high school grades or you can retake the courses again in college. Also, what is the prerequisite in nursing program? I heard that the nursing program is very competitive and many schools have limited seats and long waiting lists, so can anyone tell me a school in NY that is less competitive and doesn't have limited seats or long waiting list. I want to begin my career as a RN at a very young age(20-21 will be the best, otherwise before 25) so I wan't to make sure everything is set out perfectly starting my junior year, and that I won't be wasting my time and money that ends up with another major. I am very determined and confident with this career but I'm really puzzled about what I can do right now to increase my chance to be a RN, so if anyone can help me start my path to the RN, I'll really appreciate it. Thank You!
