I am in an RN to BSN completion program. I feel like a kid with Senioritis, it's so hard to concentrate on anything school related at this point!

awesome! Any ideas on where you'd like to take your carreer after you get your BSN? I have my LPN and am beginning the task of going for my RN, but have to take all the sciences over as they are only good 7 years and it has been 22 years. I plan to get my associates, then work toward my BSN.
It is hard. I hear ya there. You can do it! So far I am doing well, but then, I've only just begun. It does take some effort to get the memory sucking up that info again.

Repeating all of the sciences, what a nightmare! I'm sure you will be successful in your school journey, just don't forget to take some time to relax along the way. Not too sure if I will do anything different with my BSN, I really enjoy the job that I have but you never know. More than anything it may come in handy for job security; education is one of the factors they throw into a matrix when re-evaluating positions. The business of health care has become so complicated hasn't it?!

And how! So little of it actually allows for the "care" part of it. Thats what frustrates me the most. I am considering doing the BSN once i get my associates out of the way and pass my state boards. And if I am going to do the ADN to BSN, will begin right away part time so my sciences won't expire again on me! Guess here they are only considered good for 7 years.. I had no idea the human body evolved so quickly! hahaha!
