What do I do...Career?

Question

I am a sophomore in high school and I know well kind of know what I am going to do with my life when I get out. I am going to be a Joiner next year and I need to have it all figured out so I can start looking into scholar ships and putting in my collage applications if I can at the end of the year. You know?

Well I really want to be a nurse. Ether a labor/delivery nurse or a nurse that works in the pre-me units. Does any one know what the nurses that do that are called?

I also want to go into the army. At first I wanted to fly a fighter plain but now I am not sure. I am in JROTC so that will help. I am planning on doing a 4 years of it. Does any one know if you can do the nursing career I want in the army???

The other thing is I am planning on writing on the side. I love to write and allrety do. I do it just for fun but I want to do it for a career latter on.

What I want to know how can I do this? If you know any collages that would help 2.

Thanks and sorry it is so long.

Answer 1

They actually have a great nursing program in the Army. If you do join the military, make sure you're going in as an Officer. Do not enlist because your military career will be a lot harder. Personally, I would just do great in high school and go to a good college to study nursing. It's a great career choice since the demand is so high but make sure you can get into a good college. If possible, try not to join the military unless you absolutely want to........good luck!

Answer 2

I think what you mean for the first part of this is called obstetrics nursing. For the second part yes the armed forces has nurses but you need for either of these a general nursing training, typically getting a B.Sc.(Nursing), that is a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree at university.
Being interested in writing is a very good thing. Make sure you take English classes in High School and also you might have to take more as part of your university education. Think about maybe joining a poetry or drama club to develop your talents.
Good luck.
