i was wondering if np school would still be a good fit for me if i worked as an RN for a full year before applying to a masters program and then continuing to gain experience during the program(working full time as an RN while working towards my masters).
i asked a similar question in a nursing thread here on Reddit and i think people got confused or maybe i was misunderstanding people because my thread got a lot of backlash.
if you have constructive criticism please be kind!

about to start a program to get my rn in the fall. planned to start my master to become an np soon after. is becoming an np or even rn worth it? sincerely someone who wants to work 4-5 days a week, “normal” hours, no holidays or weekends (because i’m a 22 yo mom to a 1.5 year old)

edit bc a lot of people are hating: no i was never planning on going straight from nursing school to np school with no job in between. i was planning on doing a lengthy np route taking up to 6 years+ while working FULL TIME AS AN RN.
