Hi guys!

This is mostly a question about what career path to choose. I am debating becoming a LPN (Licensed Praticioners Nurse) or a RN (Registered Nurse). Currently, the LPN program last 1 year. The RN program is 2 years.

LPN do get paid less but are still hired with full benefits and pretty good money. And once you become a LPN, you can earn your RN degree online. The only thing is that at the community college here, there is a huge waiting list to get into the RN program, whereas the LPN program, you pass a test and get in.

So what do you guys think? I'm not a lazy person so I know if I become a LPN, I will continue to become a RN. Leave your opinions + advice! Thanks <3
