   Yes I replied this morning. But, last night I was not in the right head space to do so. I think I could have messed things up more. Thank you for your advice. ☺

   I know I am so nervous about it though. Thanks for the encouragement :-) When do we let them know if we want to test out of it because they didn't even give the option in my acceptance letter. Maybe I will try it just go back to my dosage calculation...

    I was accepted to LPN to RN and I was so confused by this in the letter. So they are saying we can test out of this or take nursing 108?
