Charmander1988

Hi everyone! I am 27 years old. After working retail/sales for a decade I have decided to give college another shot. I have an appointment with Concorde college in North hollywood. So far I am considering Concorde's LPN vs their AS in dental hygiene. If I can't convince myself either one is worth the money I will try for a community college LPN or RN program. My reservations lie in my education. I was "home schooled" on paper only. My mom basically forged paperwork but I didn't learn anything beyond PBS and religious curriculum. The gap in my knowledge has proven motivational in studying hard. But still today I lack mathematical ability beyond elementary algebra, pre college math and have zero science knowledge. My reason for sharing that bit of background is in hopes that maybe someone started out as a longshot and persevered. Anybody have a similar experience or words of advice for a getting out of retail hell? (side note: I have completed 36 units at community college with A's, B's and 1 C my first semester.)
