I am in OKC and they don't care either way. BSN is in no way looked at any different or paid any different than a ADN. I have my ADN and work in ICU, where I have been for 5 years, which by the way I started out as an LPN in the same department. I really think it just depends where you live to be honest. I would encourage getting your ADN and then its one year online BSN and it mostly online from what I hear. That way it is a little cheaper, and you can go ahead and start making the big bucks to get you through. Good luck :)
