Hi, there. Welcome to these forums. :welcome:
Since different LPN programs have very different requirements, you will definitely need to find a specific school that you'd like to attend and make arrangements to speak with a nursing program adviser, nursing faculty member, admissions representative, guidance counselor, or someone else from the school who would be able to answer your questions. We have no way of knowing which courses you'll need to take and whether you'd be able to test out of them, simply because we do not know which program you'll plan to attend.
For example, I attended a private 12-month LPN program 5 years ago and didn't need to take any courses beforehand. All schools require different things prior to admission.
Good luck to you!
