Depending on where you go to nursing school, you may be able to use CLEP for intro to psyc, lifespan psyc, intro to psyc, U.S. History 1, U.S. History 2 and College Composition. You'll need to take microbiology and two anatomy and physiology courses.
A nurse can do a lot .... true .... but so can the field of Chinese medicine . It's also a specific medical field which promotes higher prices. My intent is to be a doctor ... and I don't think at this time I'd want to be a doctor in the nursing field but something more specific.
If I go from RN to BSN then I might be able to use some CLEP test. But the intent is to go from RN to Masters to Doctorate. Save tons of money skipping the BSN since I don't want that kind of RN job anyway.
Thanks for the test advice.
