Im new to the nursing field and my ultimate goal is to become an RN. But i plan on becoming an LVN first. Can all you experienced lvns/rn's please tell me what steps I should take and how soon i should be expected to finish?

Also, i was curious about what are some schools in the north hollywood area or CA area in general that are easy to get admitted into and guided through school?

you if your sure you want to be an LVN first go so a college that has that program (most likely a CC) and get your LVN. once that is done you can go to a school and get a bridge LVN to RN. you may even be able to get a bachelors degree while getting your RN. your choice

here is some approved programs off the board of nursing site

AND make sure that the school you want to go to is FULLY accredited
