[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate my job and decided to change my career (I'm 32 years old so it's now or never). I decided to become registered nurse. However I am overwhelmed. Have no idea how i should choose the right school. Can't afford crazy expensive school but don't want to pick the cheapest one. I just need a great school with decent tuition. Any advise?[/quote]

Ex-RN here. Nursing school is like law school it preps you to take the NCLEX exam to get your license in the end. Go cheap and close and realize there will be a time when in nursing school you can't do it part-time because of clinicals where you have to work almost full 8 hrs on the floor. There is also math. I know someone who is struggling passing the math entrance exam to get into nursing school. Not hard math ( I can't talk I had had Calculus III when I took it) but common sense math that most should know how to do anyway. Bone up on your math first just to get past that hurdle.[/quote]

This is good advise. When I took the placement test to get into nursing school I was told most weren't getting in due to not being able to pass the math test. There was a waiting list of 300 at the time. Because I scored 100% the first time I shot up in the list and started classes right away. Bone up on your math.[/quote]
