Hey everyone!!!i just posted this in the pre-nursing forum but im hoping you ladies have a little more insight since you are already in school.SO I have a HUGE delima!!! Iam currently a certifed medical assistant but iam trying to get into kaplan college for the lvn program. even though i can quit working completly to go to school i want to continue on working. I mean going from 18.11/hr to nothing will be a huge hit to my coach bag..lol. So im thinking of maybe going to school while i wait to see if i pass everything (lvn program)to be a cna just so i can get a little more knowledge and hopefully get a weekend job while in school to buy cool stuff. I dont know if i should pay more money in addition to the 20k for the lvn program. I just dont know what to do. I have heard how after two-three months of the lvn program you can sit for the cna board.. so should it be better to just wait and do it that way? Does CA do it that way? I really want to be a nurse.. Can some one help a future nurse out??? lol
