Need some Encouragement!

Hello, I'm very new, I'm actually still a "nursing student". Hope to be finished next year. My concern is I will be 40! I'm currently 38, soon to be 39... and I never think about age! But during a lecture today, something buzzed me in my ear... am I too old to be doing this??? I know there are several girls a couple of years behind me and three or four a head of me. I really am enjoying everthing I'm learning, and so excited but something just got me worried today... am I too old, will I get a job... etc. etc. etc.

Any advice??

Thanks for the time to listen!

You are NOT too old..There are alot of grads your age and older.
Where do you live? Some grads have had a tough time getting hired in a hospital due to the recent recession. But things are changing.

:60: Welcome to the site. There are people in their 50s and 60s that attend nursing school, then go on to have successful careers afterward, so you are not too old.
