Hi Everyone,
I graduated college last year with a degree in Sociology (took me a little extra time) and now I'm planning on returning to school to become a Certified Nurse Midwife.
My plan is that I'll take 2 years to complete prerequisites and take the GRE at least twice while also working to save money.
Is anyone else starting over? I feel like I'm doing all of this so late because I'm thinking about how long this process will take and then when to have a family, etc. I'll be in my early 30s when I'm done with everything.
Also, the schools I'm looking at for my MSN are all very expensive and I'm wondering how anyone affords it?
I'm glad I got my Sociology degree, I feel like that's what spurned my interest in helping people and becoming a nurse, but I'm pretty nervous about how it's all going to work out.
Basically, I'd like to hear from other people who are going back to nursing school after getting a different degree/later in life. I'd like to hear how it worked out for you.
Thanks!
