I'm not sure if my comment will help, but just wanted to let you know I was in the same position as you, I made the decision between working more as a waitress while going to school and being a CNA and I completely understand what you're going through because its a . I am currently only a waitress and going to school, although I was worried about it would affect my application, I am now pleased with my choice because my GPA has rose, opening more doors for me, such as earning more scholarships and beening asked to join a Honor Society, along with that I am much happier and less stressed. Good Luck in your decision!
