    Talking I just got my acceptance letter to my ASN program!

    My name is Bryan, I am an EMT for an ambulance service in Indianapolis. I just received my acceptance letter for nursing school yesterday!

    I decided to become a nurse after changing my major twice. I initially wanted to go to nursing school right out of high school, but I didn't have the confidence in myself (I was told there was a two year wait list and that it was nearly impossible to get in). I decided to study computers (which I had studied in high school). After realizing the job market was flooded and that I didn't really enjoy computers as a career as much as a hobby, I decided to go to aircraft maintenance school. I saw that I didn't fit into the mechanic crowd early on and went back to computers. One day in a computer class, I took a look around the room and realized it was full of a bunch of nerds and decided to get the hell out of there. I dropped all of my classes for the spring semester and enrolled in anatomy and physiology (with only one spot left) and lifespan development. that summer, i quit my crummy job at UPS that made me depressed and went to a two week EMT boot camp. It's been nearly a year and I have been working as an EMT and finishing my prerequisites. Here I am, super stoked about being accepted into nursing school, wishing I would have done it earlier.

    Congratulations! I will graduate in December from a BSN program and I can remember the extreme happiness I felt when I was first accepted. It sounds like you have had a long journey to get to where you currently are. You will have an advantage by being an EMT; just remember that you might be taught things in school that aren't the way you do them in the field. One of my teachers used to always say "There is the right way, the wrong way, and the real way". Good Luck and again Congratulations:luck:
