Hi Everyone,
I am thinking about making a career change from being a high school teacher to LVN.
I want to get my feet into nursing by becoming LVN, save some money and take pre-req courses, then apply for LVN-BSN program.
Any LVN schools you recommend in orange county area?
Also, do you think it is feasible to work full-time and go to school part-time for LVN programs?
Thank you!

It is not easy, but definitely possible to both work and go to school. You won't have much social life but if you are ready to work really, really hard, it is definitely possible.
do you know any good schools in OC?
Can't get into public because it requires prerequisites, and I don't have time for them.
Thank you
