If you took classes with LPNs (schools that bridge in LPNs will add the LPNs to the 2nd years of the RN program), do you feel the LPNs caught on a little easier to the information? I'm an LPN going into a RN program and I'm looking for any gleam of hope that I will have a leg up on getting through my RN program. My program only allows ONE fail in 2yrs (long story, I got my LPN in a different state then I'll be going to school in so I'm doing a full 2 yrs) and all scores have to be above a 79%. I'm trying my best to convince myself that I will be ok. Edited Nov 27 by EV1518 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rn schools is about 2-3 times harder than lpn school because it adds more detail and move through the material much faster. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
