:23:I want to be a NICU/PEDI Nurse with all my heart.:) Schooling is going to take me a long long LONG time! What would any of your guesstimate [the ones who have already gone through schooling] that it would take me-:33: I have to do less than part time b/c I am working f/t and I am a single mom. So I am really planning on it taking me like 8 years...:cry_smile: which is a really freaking long time- and it may even take longer than that- so for the ones who already have gone through it -any ideas? Suggestions?
Thanks so much!

I take it that you're doing your pre-req's right now, eh? When it comes down to getting into the actual Nursing classes/clinicals.....
Hmmmm; can vary.

Yes ma'am- I am taking pre-req's right now... Just trying to stay postive and get through them- and no matter how long it does take me I know it will be worth it in the end. Thanks for commenting though.:)
