Ok, so I thought I had decided to go to school to get my LPN, and move up from there. I would have to go at night so it would take 2 yrs and cost 10k! The school does not take FA so it would be all loans and personal dollars! Then it was brought to m...

I have my test next week, so I'm taking the first steps! I think I'm leaning more toward the night program,although I'd love to do the day! I have a mortgage and bills so... I guess 2yrs it is! Are you now an rn, or an LPN? If you did your RN afterwa...
