Here in Wisconsin none of the public technical colleges have any college class pre-req's. You need HS graduation or GED, CPR, CNA, background check, and high school chem. The very idea that a 2 year ADN program would have pre-req's that you MUST complete before being allowed to start the two year nursing program means a lot of nursing students are being taken advantage of by their schools. first let me clear up all the confusion. I was a CNA, Then LPN, then San and now I have my bsn. From lpn to asn is a breeze! From Asn to bsn is very hard!! Matter of fact a lpn can run circles around an asn. They have much more on hands training than asn. This is a fact. I should know. I've been it all:nurse:
