going to a place like Harvard seems like a walk down the red carpet. it's a grand entrance, but it's also the best and oldest trick in the book. if there is a shortcut to success, that would be where the other forkway leads to vocational colleges. don't grow old trying to train as a nurse for more grueling years to come. there are medical colleges, where you focus on being a nurse (pharmacist, vet, doctor, etc) - and not an accountant or rocket scientist, xD. *sigh* some are still doing it the old way...
