Shifting Of Courses

If you happy and not doing well in your studies, that's more likely to disappoint people than being honest about the fact that you don't want to be a nurse, I would think.

I have a younger sister who first took up Nursing, but on her 2nd year decided to shift to Psychology. I am not so sure how my parents took it, but as for me being much older than she was not taken aback. I mean, I think she has good reason for pursuing the Nursing course. She has explained her side and I think hse had a valid reason. Parents, or the older siblings, cannot really impose on the course of their family members. Our goal is for the individual to be successful. Imposing a certain course is not giving that guarantee. As a student, you may promise to do good in class whatever your course. And don't make a habit of transferring from one course to the other. Make up your mind on what you really want to be as a career person then persevere on it. I am not sure whether you should get a part time job. I mean, if your parents can well afford to send you to school, I think it's nicer (not better though) to just concentrate on being a student. School life is fun, and when you look at it, it should be filled with fun memories, not the hectic schedule you have trying to accomodate your job and studies in a day. Good luck!

You really need to talk to your parents and let them know that you are no-longer intrested in nursing and tell them what you are intrested in learning and why. At least if you make a good arguement they may understand and let you switch.
