Pre req class for lpn to rn

Im planning on going to to the bridge program from lpn to rn. I dont't have any college credit at all. What are some classes i'm going to be require to take before i start taking my Rn classes? I'm a mother of 3, i don't want to go and spend money on classes that i don't need.

The following may be what you need to take depending where you go to school: Chemistry, Anatomy & Physiology (usually 2 semesters), Microbiology, Speech and/or Philosophy, English, Psychology, Sociology.

Best thing to do is check with the colleges that you plan to apply to......:)

At my school you have to have the following:

Mirco

A&P I

A+P II

English

Math

Humanites

Psych

Phed

History

Goven

Research

Public speaking

You definitely want to look at the programs in your area and one you might want to apply to because it varies a great deal. There are a few classes that ought to be a given (like at least one semester of english, A&P,psych) but you want to start looking at individual programs before you get taking more classes so you don't waste your time on classes you don't need.

If I compare my required my general education classes to those listed above; I did NOT need: Government, History, Research or Physical education. But I had to have Human development (developmental psychology), sociology, and microbiology lab.

Congrats on deciding to go back to school! Good Luck
