Considering nursing as a backup plan….
Hello there,
I’m considering nursing as a second career but I keep doubting myself if it will be the right decision for me. Any advice is greatly appreciated and here a bit of detail about me and what I’m trying to accomplish:
- I’ve completed my bachelor’s degree in life sciences about 10 years ago and worked as clinical trial coordinator, data analysts, QA/regulatory affairs
- Going to medical school was/is my dream and passion and I want to give it a shot. But as I’m older now I don’t want to enrol in another pre-med program trying to purse my dream. Hence thinking about nursing. At least even if my journey to medical school doesn’t work I’ll at least have a solid career to fall back into.
- I reside in GTA and was looking at the 2nd entry/accelerated nursing programs particularly the ones offered at Ontario a tech and Trent university; but since it’s been quite a while not sure if I will quality for that path.
Sorry for being all over the place but I’m seeking any advice or guidance that can help me make the right decision.
Thanks in advance!
