   cancalbloop posted a topic in LPN/LVN Students

   So, I was in the RN program and didn't pass my last semester. The Dean at my school suggested becoming an LPN while waiting to get back into fourth semester. It looks like I probably won't get in until Fall 2007 and even that is questionable. The Dea...
