It has been really tough for me (especially coming from a liberal arts program) because the material is actually difficult and time consuming. I have had to work my bum off in chemistry, microbiology, anatomy..I can't imagine what it will be like when I actually get to nursing school. I am volunteering now and trying to get a low-level job in the ER or surgery floor at a local hospital to make sure I like it like I think I will. My biggest fear is I get another big student loan, kill myself for a year in school and then hate the actual job! This is exactly what I am trying to do right now. I find Chem to be easy if time consuming but I took a bio class that was mostly cellular biology with some genetics and human systems mixed in and it kicked my butt hard enough that I am planning on switching schools to take a Saturday rather than a night session when I take A&P. I still got an A in the class but there was an absurd amount of homework and between the class and workibg overtime and 2 kids it was hard to find time for it all. I was slacking on reading and memorization so I could complete all the homework. As I understand it A&P is more memorization and lab work than homework, but taking an intense class like that in the evening after work I am afraid I will melt my brain or not be able to pay attention (something which happened to me in chem and bio). All day Saturday sounds easier to manage.
