Acc. RN to BSN

[iy0ga]

I know this course takes one year if your a full time student but has any one done this while working as a RN? How long did it take to complete? what was your schedule like?

You can become a nurse when you are 16????? No offense, but that sounds scary!!!

Also, what kind of program only requires 3 classes to get into the RN program? I know CNA classes only require 3...are you sure??

3 classes is the min. to get in the program. But i went to philippines for hs and they have no 6 or 7th grade so i skipped when i got there and came back(parents desicion). Does anybody knwo how long the acc. program takes to finish while working though?

Don't you eventually have to take the same classes, like Anatomy and Micro, which ARE prerequisites for most of us?

yeah i do in the RN program which is pretty much the same thing. ill probably wait another year and finish all the pre-reqs i can to keep my load light.

In the RN program I am applying to there are only 3 pre-req courses along with a 75 hour CNA course. All the other classes that you generally hear people chatting about are co-requisites in the program (a/p2, microbio, chem)that you deal with after being accepting into clinicals.
