I heard oklahoma state allows nursing students to take the LPN exam after evaluating their transcripts. Please, is there anyone from oklahoma that can give me some feedback on that, or contact information for their state board of nursing please?

I would suggest contacting the board of nursing in your state directly. They will be able to tell you. I just completed the first year of an ASN program in December '05 and sat the PN boards for Missouri in February.

Best Wishes,

Thanks a lot. I tried contacting them but the state of louisiana does not offer that possibility. That is why i am researching to see if any other state will let me do it.

CONGRATULATIONS on your success. I bet it feels good. How was the exam though? Hard?

If the dean of your school didn't know anything about it, it sounds like it may not be possible. But check with your state board of nursing just to be sure.

Check out the Pediatric forum on this website...lots of good info from Peds nurses there.

Good luck!
