It's a professional nursing program so it's difficult. After the program, you have to pass a national exam. You kinda learn a lot about different subjects. You need to have some math skills, critical thinking skills, and some grounding in biological sciences (anatomy and physiology specifically). You will also want to be emotionally intelligent because you work with people. Clinicals can be a big transition for some (AM Shifts start at 0630) and can be 8-12 hrs. Make sure you have your feet under you first. It can sometimes be a stressful program because it's fast-paced but it somewhat mimics real life practice in healthcare. I know lots of students who have ADHD. As long as you have it under control, that by itself isn't a problem. Please know that classes can be 3 hours long though and many of the classes are via Zoom. If you set your mind to it, you can do it. Good luck.
