So I've spent the last two years taking pre-reqs and gen ed. courses part time at my local community college. I am 40 years old and now that my kids are older (one is in college and the other in high school), I feel comfortable starting my own career. I recently applied to both the Nursing (RN) program and the Rad Tech program and to my surprise I was invited to join both! YAY, I am so excited and thrilled! Now I'm torn between which one to accept. I know there isn't as many job opportunities in Rad Tech but I only plan on working part time anyhow and who knows what the job market will be like in two years. I like the idea of nursing because I can do home care and not be tied to the hospital. I also like the idea of nursing because I can most likely find a job working overnights (which would be my preference). Rad tech is appealing because I've heard its not as stressful and I don't do well is chaotic stressful environments. Im so torn but so very thankful for the opportunity to join one of these programs. Can I ask you wonderful ladies (and men) here, knowing what you know now, which would you pick if you were just starting out like I am? I look forward to hearing your opinions. :) Thanks Stacey
