Can you become an RN with this college class plan?


My community college has an apparently good nursing program that will get you ready for the NCLEX (spelling?) exam to become a nurse.

Do you think you would be prepared to be an RN after completing this degree plan?

After you take the NCLEX, if you pass, are you considered an RN at that point or just an LVN?

LPN/LVN programs are usually one full year at a community college or career school. After you finish the year you can sit for the National Council of Nurses Licensure Examination for Practical Nursing (also known as the NCLEX-PN). If you pass the exam you can work as a LPN.
The RN program takes a minimum of 2 years at your community college, after you graduate you take the NCLEX-RN, if you pass you can practice as a registered Nurse.

Ask your college advisor.
