Ok long story short I want to be an NP. I like the nursing model more than the medical model. I know all the drawbacks (but lots of good things imo) now i just have to get there. I am starting an LPN program in the fall. My thing is that I have a BS in Biology (biomed emphasis), i didn't do that great (I was young and stupid, what can I say). I have taken classes since and those classes alone I have attained an A- avg. My GPA from school was a 2.5.... Blech Anyways, I'm older, wiser which is why I know I have to do this LPN program first. But my question as long as i Ace this (which I have every intention on doing). What are my options after? Cause then we have the whole DPN issue too as I won't be in school for an NP until after 2015..... I need to work while going to school I am divorced and support my 2 kids myself. Unfortunately, their dad is a dead-beat. So online is pref since I do need the income. Ugh, any words of wisdom? Thoughts? Anything to help would be much appreciated! Thank you!
