I would highly recommend you to stick with what you're doing right now--taking prereqs for the RN program. In the RN program, they will teach you nursing skills to pass the n-clex and clinicals will provide the experience you need (if you're concern about "getting your feet wet"). Vocational school for LVN is way too expensive and with the amount that you will be paying, might as well stick with the community college and go straight for your RN degree. The downfall might be the waiting list at your community college for the RN program. Even though some Vocational schools may be difficult to get in, the chances of you getting inis much more greater than community college's program. If this is the case, then maybe you would like to do some research on the nearest vocational school. But if you're patient and willing to work hard in your prereq classes, then I say to go for it. Hope this helped you out a little.
