Wow! I am on the same boat! I also want to be a RN. I really don't want to take all the prerequisites at a community college and then get stuck on a waiting list. I would rather take an RN program at a private college but no one seems to offer it her L.A. I am looking at just doing the 12month LVN program at Concord, then getting into an RN bridge program. PLEASE HELP US!WHAT IS THE BEST ROUTE? Does anyone know of a RN program offered somewhere other then a community college?
