You will be making money as an RN faster.<BR/>2. You will be getting valuable perspective that will make your BSN classes even more relevant to you.<BR/>3. IF you can get into the ADN without spending more than three years. If you have to go on a waiting list for the ADN, then try for the BSN instead. I would not spend more than three years to get the ADN. Of course, you can apply to both programs and see what you are accepted to and then decide what is better. If you KNOW that you want that BSN <I>and</I> it will take longer than three years to do the ADN, then go for the BSN.<BR/><BR/>Does that make sense? : )Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14955312313903598555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4695710452198337587.post-40532401225816856342007-08-19T17:19:00.000-07:002007-08-19T17:19:00.000-07:00You probably already know what my advice would be....You probably already know what my advice would be.. Go as far as you would want to go. I did the traditional route and started with the three year Associate in Science in nursing (first year pre-reqs and two year RN program). I worked for almost a year and then took my BSN and MSN online finishing as a Family Nurse Practitioner. I knew going in where I wanted to end up. If your goals are just to do RN then great but I always encourage to go higher. Good luck in your decision!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03879069463960748178noreply@blogger.com
