She has made her desire known, which is good,

Questions she should ask herself are:

1. does she understand the rigours of studying nursing for 3 or 4 years expecially at a School of Nursing, which involves reading almost every day from your first day of class till the onset of every exam

2. Does she have the minimum 5 O' level requirement of maths, english, chemistry, biology and physics. If she doesn't, this is the first hurdle she must overcome before her desire may become a reality, as I see she has a social science background.

3. Her age is ok

Noted but for item 2, she has no chemistry, biology, and physics at O'level.

If she's in the south east let her enroll in School of health or any nursing school in any of the south eastern state.

Upon graduation, she'll be given license to practice. You can open a pharmacy/clinic for her, and she'll start earning reasonable money.

OK, all school or colleges of Nursing require you have at least a credit in physics, biology and chemistry. It is compulsory, now it's either she goes back to school to acquire the result or she reasses her career plans and look for other alternatives

To encourage someone, she has stated the nursing apprentice for now and she loves it, hoping to way other options.

web development is one of the most lucrative positions that do not require a degree, with many Developers far suring these averages.
