Hello all!!I am a LPN student who is done my nursing school in 4 weeks and i am eager to pass the NCLEX(HOPEFULLY!) and to work but also to start up an RN program. Honestly i feel that this lpn course full time in class 5 days a week killed me, not the school work BUT the drama that took place, it really has made me want to do online for RN but i keep hearing mixed feelings about it, my question is are there many other programs online besides the excelsior? And i def dont want to go through college network i have heard many bad things from people i know and on this website alone... but if someone has something good to say i will def listen!:nuke: thanks!!!!!!:redpinkhe

I completed my LPN in July in a 4 day/week class and am so done dealing with the drama that went on in class. I took my test in Sept and passed:yeah: Now I want to get my butt in gear and start on my RN, but am so confused as to what online program to do.....and reading all these posts has just gotten me more confused.....I am actually thinking about going back to the classroom:confused:
