Thank you so much for your response. I have a meeting with our local Community College this coming week. I figure the worse that could happen, is that I fail! At least I'll know rather than wondering for the rest of my life if I could have done it. Thanks again!

Hello...just looking for some encouragement! I am a 42 year old mother of three who has wanted to be a nurse since I was my youngest daughter's age (6). I never pursued it because I was so insecure about my abilities in math and science. My husband has started encouraging me to return to nursing school (I have a BS in Child Development), but I am literally terrified of the math/statistics prerequisites I have to take before even entering that program! I know that sciences will be hard, but at least they're interesting and I can see how they apply. Statistics? Not so much....any words of advice...specifically about getting through that particular class? I've noticed on these forums that I won't be the oldest in class..so I feel better about that. Thanks so much. Can't wait to get this journey started.
