Become a CNA first. if you are working in the health care field it looks good on your application. I was a CNA for two years wile I was doing my PRE- req. and the experience helped out alot. It also gives you a better network to get letters of recognition’s to put on your application. While I was in nursing school nothing was new to me because I had heard it all before and the nurses I worked with explained alot to me and what they did to get into nursing school. best of luck and keep trying.
