I am a wife and mother currently working as a CMA , I have completed my pre req's for nursing but I have not applied yet. I am nervous about getting accepted and not being able to go. I know nursing school is a commitment, How is it possible to do with two 5 year olds and a 1 year old ? & is working out of the question?

Nothing is impossible, but you certainly have some additional demands to consider before you apply. It really depends on how great a support system you have with you partner and family. Could you drop to part-time work perhaps?
Your greatest challenge will be time management. And only you know how good you would be at that. Personally, I couldn't do it. But that's me. I know other people who have done very well at nursing school and have worked fulltime with kids.
