Don't get your license in NY. The job market for LPNs is horrible out here, I have my LPN and im 2 months into looking for work with no success. I speak Spanish fluently, did my IV, BCLS cert classes, and have prior CNA experience but no facilities want to hire new grads. My friend is having some success and she got her license in NJ so the job market is not as tough out her way. If possible go for your BSN because I am regretting doing the LPN route. The jobs aren't there and I feel like I wasted a lot of money and time when I am doing my pre-reqs now I could've already been in a BSN program.
