I had to leave full time nursing school. I was so broke I am lucky even to have internet serivce, food or a home to live. I was thinking about doing a short term course but I am unsure which one is better for learning before I get into the program again. I was doing pre reqs and I only have receptionist expereience so what would be better-- a medical assistant, occupational tech or a pharmacy tech? I could get certified and go to school part time and not be destitute. I have NO modern job skills since being an office clerk in the military and I hated office work. Any suggestions?
