Hi All, I graduated in September from VN school and just found out saturday that I passed NCLEX PN! I already have a job at the same hospital where I have worked as a CNA for the last 4+ years. So I will be making the transition as soon as my license comes in the mail!
My goal is to go on to RN, but is there such thing as going for it too soon?
I wanted to start back with classes in January, while I am still motivated and in student learning mode. I am now wondering if I should wait until I am off orientation before going back to school. I already have my AA so the only pre-reqs I have left are Chemistry and Microbiology and apparently now Physiology. That's it! All the other requirements are met. I plan on doing the LVN Bridge program that our community college offers. I had thought about excelsior but now heard that CA is not recognizing them.

6 years for me, but I know plenty of people who do it right away & do well. If you are in a position to do it, go for it!!
