Question

I need help. This does apply to Health Technically


I want to be a nurse and have been researching programs to start off as a LPN to then bridge over to my RN then BSN. I've found many programs for RN - BSN but not LPN and I'm starting to get stressed out. I don't know if it's because of the different usage of term and I'm not finding it on these college pages but I feel the melt down coming. Then I'm seeing all these different perquisites that don't make any sense. Do I take a year off to do the prereqs? Then go for the certificate. I don't know what I'm looking for or doing and need help please.

I know different colleges have different requirements for prereqs but I just need some type of simple list that most colleges share so I can do an outline and make it just look more simple

Answer 1

I believe you should take a year off and do every prereq you can get at a local college or university. a way to check that would be to go on a computer and pull up the local college, and the college you set your mind to long term. so for instance LTC (long term college) may have a prereq Bio 213 and maybe you LC (local college) has a Bio 217. you would call the LTC and say hey, does your Bio 213 line up with LC Bio 217. Most of the time they will say yes. It saves a LOT of money.
