prerequisite courses for LPN

Published

I never took biology or chemistry in high school. I am having financial difficulities and I am wondering if I can take biology and chemistry for the prerequisite courses online? What type of biology and chemistry classes should I take online? Will colleges accept the online courses for the LPN program?

It depends on which school you go to, some LPN courses include basic chemistry and biology in their curriculum (without a lab) and others don't and require you to have it I think. Your best bet is contacting the school to find out the information, most schools have all the information on their website. For RN programs it's a requirement and it has to have a lab, but sometimes they accept high school bio & chem if you did well, again it will depend on the school.

Good luck!
