I start an AA RN program in less than 2 weeks now. I did well in the pre-reqs (a B in anatomy and A’s in Micro and Physio) but I hear that nursing school is horrible and there is a TIMED math test in Pharmacology 4 weeks in to do medicine conversion equations and if you get anything less than a 90% you’re out! I’m lousy at math, particularly algebra. I have a tutoring session planned for tomorrow to help a bit with that and ease some of my fears… but I’m starting to really wonder if I can do this.
I have a 3 year old son and am a single mom. I’ve done alright so far and realize that I will have to put out some effort… but I really would just like to know that this is truly Do-able. People are making it sound like it’s the most stressful thing I’ll ever do.
HELP!! Please tell me what your experience was like and what to expect. I’m freaked out here!
