Challenged the PN-NCLEX and passed, but may not pass my last semester of the RN program?

Hi, I have a quick question and I'm not able to find any answers online so far.

I am currently in my last semester of my RN-ASN program. I challenged the PN-NCLEX just last week and I passed it!

However, a lot of changes were made in my program this semester to the way our classes are graded. Exams are at a much higher percentage of the grade than ever before. I have test anxiety and my grades so far are lower this semester. 

I am working as hard as I can to keep up, but I am slipping closer to failing out.

My question is if I do not pass my last semester of the RN program, which hopefully will not happen, but if it does will I lose the LPN standing I just received?

This is in the state of Utah and I have reached out to DOPL with no response yet.

 

Thanks in advance.

I don't know, but I don't think you'd lose your LPN.

If you fail this semester, they won't let you retake it??  As far as the PN license, if you were approved to take it, you had to have completed the required courses for it, therefor you're already a PN. And for that, congratulations!  Put don't count yourself out for your AAS-RN! Talk to your program adviser.
