    It is fine if you do not want to be a nurse... but I think a CNAs role & their work can be very different than a RN's. Maybe shadow a RN & see what you

    Ap2 Summer course?

    zoe92 replied to shammie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree, it is a hit or miss. I found A & P 2 more challenging, so I would not be able to do it in the summer. But if you are comfortable & have a great teacher, I say go for

    zoe92 replied to determinedmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think if nursing is what you really want to do, then do it. It is hard work though. It takes time and effort, not to mention motivation, to get through pre reqs & nursing school. I say sign up...
