I am applying to an LPN program, and then an LPN to RN program, has anyone done this?

Hello!
The LPN program is 1 year, and the LPN to RN program is also 1 year. I feel like having my LPN for a year while im in an RN program will put me at a slight advantage experience wise, and look better on applications. I was also considering taking a phlebotomy course. I was just wondering if anyone had any input on the lpn to rn program..is there a fast track program..etc. I will most likely be going to CCAC (Community College of Allegheny County), but if anyone has any suggestions on other schools or any advice that would be great !
THANKS A BUNCH

Don’t do it that way – bite the bullet and go straight to the RN program – and better yet, BSN program. You’ll be sick and tired of school in no time by going that route.
