I am about to apply to two Nursing schools.

The first School is a Technical College where the first 2 1/2 semesters are for LPN then you can re-apply to the for an additional 2 semesters to complete the RN program. The LPN program is 19 credit hours and the Rn is 12 credit hours.

The Second College is for an RN program that is 2 years and 12 credit hours per semester.

I have read that if one can avoid doing anything other than school, as in working full time, that is the way to go.

Me not working 40 hrs a week is not an option. Nor is getting some of the pre-requisites out of the way.

I would like to know how many credit hours you have taken per semester..did you work full time, how many hours per week did you go to to school per day? per week??

How many hours devoted to studying?? per day??

Thanks,

Mark
