    Iwant2banurse posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm not sure if this was covered in any of the boards but my question is: is it possible to become an LPN while still in RN school? Or are you required to take a special LPN

    Iwant2banurse replied to carmen's topic in General Nursing
