took my assesment test, now have some questions.

by babs4u

Well, I took my assesment test today at B.C. i got the score I figured I would get on the math, gonna need to work my way up. I did pretty good on the reading and english. The paper work says that there are none required, (extra classes ) that I would have to take for the reading, but for the English, it states that I scored at the Engl B1A, which is one of the pre-reqs for the LVN program. Does this mean I do not have to take that pre-req? The student adviser didnt mention that?

I told her that I wanted to get into the RN program. Apparently there is a 2 year waitlist for the LVN program, and the RN program is so inpacted that they choose students on a lottery base. She advised me to start taking the lvn pre-reqs, apply, and while waiting the 2 years , to start taking the RN pre-reqs and general edu. classes. This to me, seems like more money out of my pocket and more time waisted. I dont know.

Do you guys think this is a good plan? Or should I still go straight for the RN program and take my chances on the lottery thing.

Default Re: took my assesment test, now have some questions.
Also, the adviser told me that for the lvn program, one of the pre-reqs is Bio B18, and the Bio pre-req for the rn program is B32 and B33, she told me to take the last 2. Now the lvn program should accept those 2 right? Or does it have to be the B18?

Sorry if this question doesnt make sense. Im learning as I go.
Thanks!
