What is my best option? |
Ok, i have finally decided to be a nurse. I have a few options as far as school. I want to be an RN case manager. I am going to have my transfer A.A after this semester, but I still need to take the pre-requisites for nursing(A&P i & II, etc). Here are my options 1) take all my pre-requisites and get my b.a in psychology(there is no nursing program where i'm going), 2) finish my pre-requisites and go to LPN school(a community college) 3) Go get my BSN after getting my A.A or 4) Getting an accelerated BSN after finishing my psychology degree. Its SO confusing!!!!!! Help would be appreciated, my career counselor isn't going to be on campus for 3 more weeks, I'm impatient. Thank you God bless! option 3, getting your bachelor science nursing is best if you want to be a nurse. option 1) it is difficult to be a nurse with a psychology major. you need a master degree almost to work as psychologist/counselor. not as good money. option 2) LPN do not make as much money as BSN. option 4) a psychology degree is not needed by a bachelor science of nursing to get employed. why would you want to major in psychology anything ? the field doesn't pay very good. most psychology undegrads end up in human resources because they do not fit anywhere else. i wouldn't spend time or money in psychology classes or major. sounds like a school that doesn't have right program is pushing a psych degree on you ? get counseling from a 4 year / school that offers a BSN in addition . good uck! Getting a BSN makes the most sense. The majority of case managers I work with at the hospital are RNs (every once in a while a social worker will fill in, but that's not their main job). Most places require a BSN for this position. A psychology degree is not a requirement. RN |
