If your already a LVN and want to get into an RN program do you have to take the pre reqs still?

Question

im thinking about doing and LVN program for now and than going into an Rn program but i want to know if you have to still do the pre reqs it requires to be an RN

Answer 1

You don't do the RN pre-reqs til you need them.
You should be able to do just the requirements for the Practical Nursing program. Usually things like CNA class, CPR class, Anatomy & Physiology 1, Developmental Psychology, Written Communications, Oral Communications. Those are the ones I think think of off the top of my head. You may need a math class too.

When you go into RN, you will need Advanced Anatomy & Physiology, Microbiology, Sociology, maybe Econ, etc.
