I expect the title Sister would be a nurse who is also a nun. I worked with a Sister once. But her professional title was RN. I think you've got them all. An RN is so titled whether she graduated with a bachelor of science degree (4 years) or an associate degree (2 years). Either of those takes the same board exams. One who has a masters degree in nursing (MSN) is also considered an RN for professional purposes as they don't take additional board exams. In most of the US licensed nurses are LPNs or licensed practical nurses and in Texas and California they're LVNs, licensed vocational nurses. Each of the programs are about 18 months followed by board exams. Is that way more info than you wanted!? =D
