    im not entirely clear on what your asking..but i gather that you are going to be a LVN/LPN..??
    assuming this is what you mean….
    you will def still need more classes to be an RN. if you go for 2-yr associates RN, there will be less classes than if you go for BSN/RN (4yr).
    I am graduating with BSN/RN this summer and i have taken 2 physics w/ lab, 2 chem w/ labs, 3 bios w/ labs, microbiology w/ lab, 2 anatomy/physiology w/ labs and a bunch of other non-science pre-reqs.
    A girl in my class is an LPN and she only got out of taking ONE CLASS!!! she took all of the same nursing courses as the rest of us who aret LPN/LVNs!
    Also, vocational credits dont often transfer to accredited RN nursing programs. In LPN/VN school you will have microbiology but it is abbreviated and their is not lab associated with it. For RN graduation requiremetns you must have micro w/ lab. so..the micro that you already took wont count for anything ;(
    some of it makes sense, but alot of it is just a money game!
    best of luck, hope this helps

    There are more pre-requisites required for RN programs than for Vocational nursing programs, usually. Talk to a counselor at the campus where you plan to do your RN program and take a copy of your unofficial transcript so the counselor can see what you have taken already and will let you know for sure! It is always best to make the time to see a counselor who knows more about your specific program and what they require!
