Hi,
My school makes the LVN program sound so much harder than the RN program. They say its very intense and the director even told me that the RN was easier and more manageable. I was thinking of doing LVN first since it doesnt require pre reqs. I was enrolled for two classes but decided to drop my classes. I have a 2 yr old and a 5 yr old so it was really hard. It was mainly the algebra that was kicking my butt. I have no idea about how to do that stuff and don't get it very easy. It was taking many hrs a day for just that class and I had my 2 yr old standing at my door crying for me the whole time I was studying. It was rough so I have decided to wait till she is in kindergarten to do anything. I have not taken the accuplacer test yet and hope I can learn the algebra enough on my own to pass that test. Then I would not have to take any dev algebra classes at all.
Anyhow, is LVN really harder? Its crazy that it would be but I have heard it from a lot of people. I thought this board would be a perfect place to ask this since most have already been to LVN. I am so unsure of what to do first. I hate wasting time but there is not way I can study with a 2 yr old. My 5 yr old is fine and plays on her own or with her dad but the 2yr old is such a mamas girl. LOL
