One of my ultimate goals in life is to have a career that I really love. Ever since I was a young girl I wanted to be a nurse. I knew that nurses took care of you when you were sick and helped you with anxiety or fear of being in a hospital. My passion for helping people led me to a path where I can study nursing. In 2012, I decided to go back to school after getting married and having kids. Being out of school for five years made me feel nervous about whether or not college, was something I could be able to get through. I decided that I would take the GED test and I passed. Receiving my GED allowed me to pursue going back to college. I took my prerequisites for the nursing program in 2013 and this year I applied to the RN program at the North Campus. I was accepted, which …show more content…

San Jacinto College is a college that I feel meets my needs for seeking a higher education. The professors are great and they really care for their students. My goal during the RN program is to learn the art and science of nursing and apply that towards my clinicals.

I hope to make my teachers proud and show them that their hard work in the classroom will reflect off their students success. I know that preparing for the NCLEX exam will be hard, but I’m willing to put the time and effort towards reaching my goal of becoming a nurse. After nursing school, I hope to work in a respectable hospital or clinic and gain experience working with patients. Eventually I would like to continue my education and enroll in a baccalaureate program. Today, advances in nursing allow for obtaining higher degrees. The process of learning, I think, is continuous throughout life and one should take advantage of all the graduate programs that are out

My passion for nursing practice defies description; leading to the reason I am opting to pursue a higher level of education in nursing.

Strategies for Success Nursing school and the NCLEX board exam after graduation are not easy, especially when learned at an accelerated pace.

Helping them understand their own problems gave me a sense of satisfaction and pride. I want to be important in helping younger generations become better people.

Progress is impossible without change. To change is important within a business and a person, if we don't change we cannot grow. Sometimes change is brought on by ourselves and sometimes we have no control over it. If we take control of the change it will be beneficial for the future.

I am passionate about traveling the world and seeking experiences, and I see business as a way to achieve this.
