thanks for the reply, but the this adult learning center all they require is the nln pre admission exam. I got the book and when I looked at the questions it seems like a breeze. I think the only part I would need to brush up on is the science part but the math doesn't seem to hard and the I read pretty fast. Other than that I hear that they require you to take an interview and another test. If I did well on the test how much would that count towards getting accepted and what else could I do to stand out as a candidate. I know they want a reason for me wanting to become a nurse. I can say that one of the reasons was that I was taking care of my grandmother for a year so far when she was diagnosed with alzheimers and it has been an experience. But what else can I do to improve my chances?

I understand your concerns. Unfortunately I'm in the same boat as you. My friend's wife is an lpn and I hear she's making really good money. She didn't seem to have any trouble finding a job. In fact she has two right now, so she's working about 5-6 days a week. But would anyone know about how difficult admissions are for becoming an LPN. From what I've read it's not as difficult but I haven't heard to much about LPN admissions, and for me I'm looking at getting into the brooklyn adult learning center. Wish you the best on your goal of becoming a nurse tina

I heard that there is a lot of competition if you want to become an RN. So was thinking that I would become an LPN with the hope of later on working my way towards that RN degree. But is it as hard to get into an lpn program in NYC as it would be to get into an RN. I don't see a lot of information on it, and when I tried calling up the schools I found that were accredited never got an answer. I'm deciding to go with the brooklyn adult learning center but I still don't know how many people apply versus getting rejected. I also have a bachelor's in psyche if that means anything. So again I just wanted to ask, is it really hard getting into an LPN program in NYC?

I'm looking to become an lpn as well and was concerned if anyone knew how hard it is to get into an lpn program. The minimum requirements to get admitted don't seem like a lot but are there a lot of people to compete against when your going to a school like the brooklyn adult learning center or medgar evers?

Kudos! Great to hear you made it. I was thinking of going there myself and was hoping someone could tell me more about the admissions process. Like how hard it is getting into this program. I know it's just taking the pre admission exam and an interview. But if there are a lot of people applying how else do they narrow down the applicants.
