Sorry about that, I edited it. I am just finishing school.

My career as an ADN nursing student is coming to an end in two short weeks! I have accepted a job already, pending NCLEX of course, that will be part-time. This was my decision based on the fact that I will be having a child in March. My question is, as a new graduate, did I decide the best? Should a new graduate start the race slow and steady part-time or just jump right in? I have always worked a part-time job while attending school full-time, but with the new addition to the family, I do not want any regrets! Any advice from those of you who have been through this would be greatly appreciated.

I have heard of many fast tracts to go from my ADN straight to the MSN without having to get my BSN. I know it is a little more cost effective in my state to do this. Has anyone done the fast tract? What would you suggest? I know my hospital gives a small pay raise for BSN but not the MSN. For the small raise, I think the fast tract will actually save me more. I don't know which direction to take! Any suggestions would be great!
