I am stuck between LVN and RN. Are you better off in the long term when you first take LVN then transition into RN? First I wanted to take RN then I don't know, I keep changing my mind. Currently i'm finishing up anatomy and physiology at a community college. The current community college that i'm going to has a nursing RN program which is waitlisted, that is the program i'm intended into going once i'm finished when my prereqs. But then I feel like i should do LVN first at a different college, thinking that i would be better off later when i transition to RN. UGH, someone help me. AND glad to be back in the allnurses community, I haven't been in this website since 08 i think, hahahah.
