LVN school?

Morning everybody,

I was needing a little feedback from the world.

I am currently conflicted between my career choices. I have completed all of my classes for BSN, but I was wondering if I should do LVN or an ADN program?

I am debating about joining UTA's online program (I already have a degree plan laid out by the college). But considering I am pregnant and due in November I was wondering if its even worth it. UTA is super competitive and they advised me to retake a science class that I made a B, in order to make me "more competitive." :( I fear going through all this just to be rejected for Fall 2019.

The LVN/ADN program will be completed at TCC. But what are my chances of getting accepted to that?

    Do you mean prereqs? Because if you've completed all the classes to earn a BSN I can't imagine why this is even a question....

    Yes, my prereqs are completed. minus the university specific ones like into to nursing, patho and pharm.

    And its a question because, for one I am having a baby this November and I would like to not overload myself, the college has laid out for me 12 hours worth of classes for this fall semester. And second, because of the competitiveness

    I should have made myself more clear, I am asking on advice on acceptance.guidance to my backup plan.

    maybe I posted in the wrong spot?

    I'd go for ADN. I've actually read that it many cases, LPN/LVN programs can be harder because of the workload. Those programs are usually full time (6-8 hour days 3-5 days a week) for an entire year. Plus, you have more choices and flexibility for jobs as well as having a higher degree if you go for your ADN versus LVN. Not to mention higher pay....
