So what is your question exactly? Science is a large part of nursing and you will have to deal with some math.

My question is it worth pursing lpn and is there a faster way to earn your associate

Yes of course LPN is worth it. No there are no shortcuts to Associates. You will have to complete your prerequisites first.

A PN program may be faster, however, there is a TON of information that is packed in the program; math and science is a HUGE part of the program; there are math and science concepts that are important to your practice that you have no way getting around.

You will have to reconcile whether you want to be a nurse or not; the bests thing you can do is talk to a few programs in the area, shadow both and come to a decision if math and science are deal beakers for you.

Best wishes.

You can obtain an associate of science in nursing degree in 2 years. Quite fast in the grand scheme of things. If you do not like math and science, nursing is not for you.
