<p>I had many similar conversations with my d during her 4 years in Nursing School. She had many doubts about wanting to be a nurse but she also had some really good experiences - it was a real mix. There were several points when she wanted to switch to another major but the problem was that she didnt know what to switch to. Ultimately she decided to add a minor in an area that interested her and to get the BSN with the idea that she could change to something else in grad school. She is now working as a nurse and deciding where and what she wants to do in grad school. But she will always have that BSN and be employable - it’s a very practical degree.<br>
My response during all of her doubting moments was to wait it out - see if she felt the same at the end of the semester.<br>
Isnt the road to dentistry just as long or longer? And more expensive? How does she know that’s what she wants?</p>
