Yes, I am very mature for my age, there are just some things that my stomach can not bear. Therefore, I am looking into some Ultrasound Technician Programs around my town. Thanks for your response!

Amazingly thorough response. I appreciate it!

Yes, I am a 16 year old senior in high schol (graduating pretty early), and I was planning on going to my local community college to obtain an Associates Degree in Nursing; But i am having 2nd thoughts considering that NURSES have to perform tasks s...
