Who all here goes to college?

I am getting ready to sign up for some online classes,but I'm worried that I won't find the time to study as much as I should. How do you find the time? I work 2 jobs,one of which is taking care of my sisters kids,and I just wonder how everyone else finds time for studying,with work,and all the other daily duties that need to be done?

I am in college for the second time. smile

I am about finished prerequisites and then I'll start nursing school. I am a single mom to 2 boys and I work.

As far as how I do it I can't give you a specific game plan. I just do it because I have to. I work nights at my job so while I'm at work I can get some homework/studying done. When the kids go to bed I get a lot done too.

If you really want to make it work you will find time. hug

Good luck!

Are you going back to school to advance in your current field? Or are you changing careers?

Changing careers,currently I am a In Home Health Care Worker,I care for my disabled uncle,but I need to start thinking of when he is no longer here for me to care for him. I am looking into becoming a MT (Medical Transcriptionist),and possibly later a medical coder.

Cool!

You can't go wrong in the medical field it seems. I'm sure you will handle things. We are always able to work things out somehow. I truly believe this. Even in the midst of chaos there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.

True. biggrin

I was once told I should become a nurse,it just was never a option for me,cause the patience would have to take there own blood,cause I just would'nt be able to do it. Heck I don't even want to be there when I have to have my own done. lol

Good luck to you to!

There are jobs for that degree. I have a friend that does some lab/research job with her BS degree.

It does seem though that it's getting almost impossible to find a decent job with a BS degree anymore.
