LPN to RN without the classroom

Published

Hi , I will be graduating as an LPN in a few months which is well short of my RN goal. I was told that in some states that I could work for a year or two as an LPN and then sit for the NCLEX-RN boards without having to deal with the stress of the classroom environment. Is this true? Are there any states that you are aware of that permit this?
Any other suggestions?

thanks!!!

I seriously doubt most states will allow you to do what you are asking. California I believe allow challenges but will only be acceptable for California
