RN NCLEX

Hi friends, I am currently taking prereqs for the ADN program. I was a little unsure if I should go straight for my BSN which I know would take longer, but at the same time, I would like to work as a Nurse sooner. My question is does anyone know if you can take the RN NCLEX while in the BSN program after you have finished required nursing classes and clinical hours?

Are you referring to completing an RN to BSN program? If so, most of those programs will actually require a nursing license to attend. You are eligible to take NCLEX after completing the ADN or diploma program  

If you mean after completing part of a pre-licensure BSN program, then no. All of those classes will be required before you can take NCLEX-RN. Depending on the state, there is a small number where you can sit for NCLEX-PN and be grant an LPN/LVN license. Both the school and the state must allow it- the majority do not. 

Hey there! Yes you will need to finish your degree and get your ATT. Once your school sends that to the boards you can test
