Hi. I took RN classes years ago. i was actually in the nursing program, but didn't finish. am I qualified to become a LPN? Also is there a school that will take old science classes?

It depends on how long ago it was. Many of my classmates who took a year of pre-reqs. and then quit school came back after 10 years and had to start from scratch. I don't know what the exact time frame is, but if you contact a local community college and talk to someone in admissions you'll be able to find out.
I don't know about the LPN question, I do have a co-worker that stopped working as an LPN years ago, but she quit. Now she's working as a CNA because she let her license lapse. She told me she has to take a refresher course before she can re-take boards to work as an LPN.
good luck
