I'm starting school this summer and I'm tring to make up my mind on if I just want to go to be a LPN or go for 2 years and be a RN. I know this might sound silly but can someone please tell me the difference in a LPN and a RN? Is there a big pay difference? I have two small children and would like to get through school as fast as I can but I want to make the right choice and do something that I will enjoy.
