I was going for my BSN but now I've decided just to get my AS. alot less work and not that much difference in pay. sucks because I need 1 more class before applying to nursing school but apps are due by march 1st. I'm having to take the class in spring so it all pushes me back 1 more year *grumble* yeah its going to take me like 5 years to do my nursing AS *sigh*

Don't cry!!!

I was 3 years into a BS degree when I decided to switch my major to nursing. My GPA was around a 2.2 at that time, and I moved home ultimately transferring colleges. After a few semesters my GPA was 3.3 and I got into one of the best nursing programs in the state. I finished my junior year, but my GPA had slipped to a 3.01. At the time I didn't have my daughter, I was only working 24 hours a week. But the demanding schedule between lectures/labs/clinicals and then studying AND working was too much for me. That was only taking 12 and 14 credits. My senior year I'd have to take 17/18. My advisor told me to cut my hours at work, but I needed the benefits and the money to pay a mortgage/car payments/insurance and every other bill an adult has to worry about. I ended up getting a BS from that school, but not in nursing. That was my last semester, and the Dean saw that I had enough credits to graduate and gave me the degree. That's besides the point, where I'm going is that now I'm in a ADN program, I had all of the prereqs out of
