Second-degree student...am I doing this right??

[lecsan02]

I've been back and forth with nursing and PA school during my 4 years at a California university and I've FINALLY settled on trying to get an ADN after much debate. Now, I'm just anxious about the prospect of applying to ADN programs and the acceptance rates, especially considering I am behind.

For context, I have 2 more quarters to enroll in and pass Anatomy, Physiology, and Microbiology (the only 3 major prerequisites required by most I've noticed) and will probably have to enroll in CC to finish out Microbiology as soon as I graduate.

I am fully dedicated to studying and passing these classes with A's and I've recently got a job as a PT Aide, which I hope could get me extra points for the point system programs. I am now considering obtaining CNA certification so I can have more experience under my belt and be able to help me out in some way financially post-grad.

Is this a feasible route for someone with a social sciences degree who wants to be able to jump into nursing as soon as possible? I'm so eager to jump into healthcare and become an RN.

I would love to hear feedback from fellow nurses and pre-nursing students in an ADN program!!
