I just realized I wanted to be a nurse a few months ago. Do I have to be an LPN first to start nursing school??

You don't have to be a LPN first. You can go to school and become a LPN which is a nurse as well.  But to be a RN you can apply to a 2 yr college (ADN) or a 4 yr college (BSN).  The best way to start is find a school in your area and research the nursing programs. Most of that can be done online and it will give you an idea of what you need to do.
