I am new to this forum and was just looking on some information. I am currently back in school for the first time in nearly 4 years after having my son. Last semester I received my CNA and I am looking to continue my education and I was looking for some information. I am trying to decide if I should apply directly for the RN program or if I should do the LPN-RN bridge program? I have heard that the LPN is less competitive to get into and once I graduate that it will allow me to bridge into the second semester of the RN program. Has anybody had any experience with this?
I'm hesitant to apply for the RN program because I heard it was a lot more competitive.
One last question, what did you all use to study for the NLN? I need to start studying so I can take my test over the summer to apply for the LPN program! Thanks for any information!
