Thank you all for the advice (opinions).... I really want to be a nurse... Fear is the only thing holding me back. Its going to be a big for me to go to school. Just want to make sure its worth it.

Yea I know I have to make to decision on my own, I was just trying to get help to make an informed decision. Thank you for your advice. I have been checking hospital postings (in NY) and they all want experience and bsn. However I didn't look at LTC, I thought only LPN's worked there.

Thank you for your response. Your right every one had to start out from somewhere. I really want a career even if the start is hard

I really hope someone can give me some helpful advice. I've been a medical assistant for over 9 years and really wanted to go for my RN.....until I started reading post on this site. Now I'm really worried. My plan was to get my associates degree get a job and pursue my bachelors degree online. However now I'm concern I won't even get a job with a associates degree and being anew graduate. So my question is, is nursing still a good field to try to get into? Also I was told all nurses have to have bachelors degree in 2015, is that true? All and advice will be really appreciated! I just want to be fully informed before invested time and money into anything.
