The school I am going to offers an LVN program in which you can achieve a Certification or an Assoicaites Degree in Vocational Nursing.
What would be the better choice?
With either the certificate or associates degree you will be able to take the NCLEX -PN exam.
I plan on continuing and doing an RN bridge program afterwards so I just wanted to know what is a better choice the certificate or the Assoicates degree in vocational nursing??

Excuse me ColleenRN2B, but I believe I can post anything on here if I have questions and am wanting opinions from other people. I dont know why you would take the time out of your day to seriously say something like that about what I am posting. People on here post things all the time.I am new to pursuing my nursing career and just want to get other opinions from people who are nurses already so I can make a better decision for my life.
You are correct that times have changed and colleges are different in some aspects when it comes to all of this, and I would be asking these schools but it is the weekend so I am trying to do research on my own.
If you dont want to read my posting because you believe they are "repetitive" then dont. Its that simple. JMO
Oh Darling, you are going to have a hard time in school if you can't handle having your statements commented on. I was merely pointing out that you ask the same questions with different verbage and then get a bunch more answers. Are you even processing what people are telling you?
Community College vs Technical College
ADN vs ASN
LVN vs LPN with or without a bridge course
ADN vs BSN
Take the PN exam vs go straight through to RN
You have covered it all and have gotten a variety of experiences, opinions, thoughts and answers.
I read your posts because they give my eyes a good exercise in eye-rolling, LOL! You are welcome to ignore my posts as well =)

Cool, that's what I have been saying. Well, I don't know what degrees LVN hold in it though as long as you cannot go to a hiring manager and say " I have my associates degree in nursing, I am a LVN.".
To Stelon, excuse me, who said " you are just a LVN" type thing? Let me tell you, I am tired of seeing people dramatizing things here. If it is not a degree, not a degree, alright? Don't talk like you didn't know what you were getting into. Nobody is bashing any title here, so no need for drama. We aren't discussing who is better thing, we are discussing degrees. I have respect for all LVN's and RN's who do their job well.
