A BSN is a 4 year baccalaureate degree in nursing, after ypou get your BSN you can take a test and become a Registered Nurse. A RN is higher than an LPN. LPN is a licensed practical nurse. You have to go to school for only 1 - 2 years to be a LPN.

I think, depending on the program of the school you attended, you can get an RN with a BSN. If the BSN program was a RN program, you can sit for the RN exam, or if it was an LPN program, you can take that exam. Check with your school dean.
