I don't think we should get our panties in a bunch about it.LOL. True! After my ex-best friend went to nursing school & was a nurse for less than 6 months I so badly wished she could just give me her RN license.

Please explain.There are quite a few nursing programs that allow (and some even require) its students the option to obtain certain certifications and an LPN license once they reach a certain point within its program. Doing so shows a comprehension of nursing education as well as providing motivation as progression through the program continues. It also gives students an advantage of securing employment while pursuing their chosen degree.One of the local programs here once granted its students, who successfully challenged the NCLEX-PN during the BSN program, credit for the equivalent of one full year of its nursing program. But, they were only allowed two attempts at the exam, and it could only be challenged after having met a specified amount of classroom and clinical instruction. After two failed attempts, students had no choice but to complete the full path to licensure. I don't know if this particular school still offers that option now or not.
marcellahays1 17 Posts Oct 9, 2017 I think that you need to go to a state approved nursing school in order to become eligible. It is very important to check your states nurse practice act and see what they require. Not all states have the same requirements. I would also check with your school in order to see what they recommend. I wish you the best and please keep us posted.

Looks like some med students have too much time on their hands LOL. Wonder how they manage to succeed in school if that is their idea of a good use of time! Seems like "stoooopidity" can be shared aplenty!
