You need to work about 2-3 years to get a Registered Nurse certification. One need to complete at least 2 years of associate degree in nursing. This will make him/her eligible to take the NCLEX exam which will finally certify that the person is a registered nurse.
You do not get a RN (Registered Nurse) degree. To become a RN you earn an associate degree in nursing then take the state nursing exam. If you pass you are then a RN. You can also get a 4 year degree in nursing, which will make you even more marketable. Then, you would be an RN with a BSN. You still have to take the state nursing exam.
An associate degree in nursing allows you to take the state exam to become a registered nurse (RN). A practical nurse has a much more limited scope of practice. You must also take an exam through the state (LPN). Significant pay increase for the RN vs LPN in most areas of clinical practice

Answer Registered Nurses have tons of paper work to do. My suggestion to you would be to go to a seminar for a Nursing School and see just exactly what is required from a Registered Nurse and take it from there.
First, you have to get your BSN, a 4-year degree from a health care college. This usually involves an externship where you work in a hospital or other medical practice for a few weeks to get used to the work environment. After that you get your RN license by passing the NCLEX-RN, but your license is only good for the state you're in. You usually have to re-take the exam to get your license for another state.
You will need an associates degree in nursing, which will usually take 2 or 3 years.You will also need to pass the NCLEX exam. (also known as the National Council Licensure Examination)
No you cannot take my scholarship exam. You must take your own.
