TAMU RN-BSN... How demanding is it??

[jlutz]

I have been a RN for 13 years and finally decided to go back to school. I have gone through the admissions process and currently waiting on a decision however I am trying to look ahead to see which track (3 semester or 5 semester) would work better for me. Is there anyone who has completed this program that could provide me with a little bit of info regarding how demanding/intense the classes are?! How it's set-up/Due dates/Deadlines... things like that. I just really need to know does the 3 semester track consume your entire life or is it possible to balance the 3 semester program along with job, kids, etc? I'm fairly confident in my ability to keep up however I do work FT and I'm a mom to 3 littles. I just want to make the best decision possible so that I can accomplish my BSN as quick but also as smart as possible.

Thanks in advance!

PS... When I say Quick it's because I want to continue to my MSN and other goals I have set for myself.
