which would be easier.

I think it would be best to go straight for the BSN. If you can't do that go for the ADN and if can't do that go for LPN. Aim for the highest level that you can do first it will save you time and money in the long run.

I agree with Julianne. If you can get into a BSN program, that's the way to go. I went with an ADN, but while I was on the waitlist, I got my prereqs done for the next step. Funny thing is that after 5 years of nonstop schooling, I've decided to break for at least a year once I graduate in December. I am fried and would like to focus on my first year of nursing practice without distractions. For me, paper writing is a huge distraction!

The downside to LPN programs in my state is that they use simpler science classes. So to move from LPN to RN, you get to take A&P, Micro etc., all over again. I wouldn't go that route unless there is absolutely no way to get into another school.

If you have the option, I would go straight to the BN. Especially if your city has an accelerated BN program, that means less time in school for you. Here, our RN is 2 years and the BN is 3.. if you are able, it makes more sense to take the BN.

I think straight to BSN, unless there is some reason that isn't practical for you. It seems like a bunch of unnecessary work to do two bridges.

I agree and would choose straight BSN. However, if the other route with the two bridges is getting paid for then it might be worth it.
