ABSN or Traditional Program?

So, for some context I am a highschool student doing dual enrollment to complete my nursing prereas for my school of choice (Concordia University St. Paul). I have a few classes left this spring and plan to start nursing school in fall of 2025.

Rn, i am on the course to start the ABSN program but I have been overthinking if this is the best choice for me. I thought it'd be a good idea since I have always re-taught myself the material in almost all of my prereas. So, i thought doing the ABSN program where the coursework is online would save me some time from commuting and being in lectures. I have somewhat good time management but I could def work on it some more. The first semester classes in the ABSN program are Patho, Pharm, Fundamentals, and Health & Assessment. So it starts off very intense.

My second option is doing the traditional two year program. I am able to just fill out a form to switch to the traditional program. But, idk if i would be wasting my time doing every single lecture in person then reteaching myself all the material. I think being around classmates could be helpful to form some study groups but i think i could also do that in the ABSN bc labs/clinicals are in-person so I could meet some ppl. The first semester classes in the traditional program is patho, fundamentals and health & assessment so it a little more chill.

I also have been thinking of doing the traditional program to make some friendss cus i literally have none. I dont go to my highschool anymore cus im doing dual enrollment full-time, so my previous friends and i have grown apart and at the college i go i have not met anyone that ive gotten close enough to call a friend so i thought being in a school setting where we are all working towards the same i could meet some ppl i really connect with.

If anyone has some advice or thoughts pls let me know ive been thinking about this for sooo long😭
