nursing school

[Bunnymedic]

I'm trying to decide which nursing school to go to.
There are two.
The first one will be
1.cheaper
2.easier to get into
3.require less classes
4.and be a less intense program
but the bad side is,that the hospital I will do my clinical in,and probably get a job in,is not my top choice.

the second school is
1.farther away
2.more difficult program
but,I can get in earlier (this coming spring instead of next fall)and I will end up doing clinical and probably working for a level 2 trauma center at a good hospital with a great rep.

anyway,I'm applying for both,and praying that God will lead the way.

choices,choices,choices.............

anyone else have nursing as a major?

Hmm that's a tough one. I would just keep praying about it. When I had to decide between two schools I prayed that God would only let me get accepted to the one if He wanted me to go there, and guess what I didn't get accepted. And I have a higher GPA than my bff who got accepted there, so that was God's way of showing me that was not the school He had in mind for me.


I'm graduating in April with a degree in psychology and sociology, but I really want to become a nurse. Maybe I'll go back after I graduate...


Good luck with everything!!

From a purely pratical standpoint, I would go with the more reputable one. It is a better program which will mean you will have been exposed to more things to make you a better nurse. This gives you higher earning potential and more options for where you work once you graduate.

In the end, however, just keep listening for what God has in mind for you. I pray that he'll make it an obvious and easy decision for you.
