Hi all..
My name is Dave.. 52 years old and going back to school to "retool" I hope I can meet the challenge of it all.. been long time since i sat in a class room. I work full time as of now in the Graphic Arts field.. I hope some day to be a RN but will pursue that later.. Hope I'm not too old.. looking forward to making some new friends here.. Live in central NJ

Welcome to the site, Deke! At 52, you're NOT old.

Hopefully, you can swing a class or two towards your nursing prereq's while you work......

Welcome and good luck in school. Many student nurses are in your age group and men as well.
Keep in touch. BTW, I grew up in Monmouth County, New Jersey.

Thankyou for the words of encouragement ... Ricu... nice to meet another "jersey shorer"

BTW after six years you can't be as new as you can get. Post more often! We would like to hear how it is going for you.

I say Deke was thinking of nursing for quite some time, and decided it was finally time! Am I correct, Deke?

[deke]

you are correct... been thinking about it for awhile now and my current job... well not looking as good as I like.. so may be time for a change
