RE: Difference of RN & LPN in NCLEX???

by okidoki

Can anyone tell me what's the difference between RN and LPN in NCLEX? I mean, the type of questions in NCLEX because I didn't open yet the LPN practice test. They said, you have a good chance of passing in NCLEX-LPN when you're a graduate of BSN. Is it true? Has anyone failed in NCLEX-RN and decided to take first the NCLEX-LPN and pass in their first take?

For immigration purposes you need RN so much better to concentrate on passing RN not LPN. You can not just take LPN if you fail RN but have to go through the application process and send all your documents again.
