   Well we have to at least consider the money... I don't know when you went through college, but I will owe over 130,000 bucks when I'm done (just for 2 years!). I think that an extra 2-3 years of school at 700-800 dollars per credit is definately som...

    BCzito replied to twallum's topic in General Nursing

    You can do it, it seems like you have lost a lot of confidence in yourself. You have to keep in mind that you've been through an awful lot recently and its simply not possible sometimes to just forget it all. My dad was 50 when he went to nursing s...
