I am considering getting my LPN first and then going straight into block 3 of MCCNDP. I am wondering how long block 3 and 4are? Are they each 4 months/ I am trying to figure out which path would be shorter. LPN to Block 3 or just wait 1.5 years to get into the accelerated program. Thank you for any help 0 Likes
Adammn Feb 26, 2009 Oh ok. I feel dumb now , haha. I thought it was a little more complicated where each block was a different length. How does that work with the 16 month program? I would imagine the majority of people would want to get into the 16 month so is it the hardest to get into? 0 Likes

The material is not presented in an accelerated/compressed manner. 0 Likes
