SCHOOL IS A SCAM

by saraaaaa at Citysearch

This college is a scam. they have the most under-qualified teachers and the staff treat the students like dogs. I managed to barley graduate however out of the 30 some kids that started the class with me only 7 graduated. mid semester we ended up having to absorb 20 or so students from another class because their teacher was fired for falsifying documents. The tests they give are riddled with mistakes so even if you answer the question right you can get marked down for it and they don't give you credit when you catch the mistake.

EVERYONE WILL TREAT YOU REALLY NICE BEFORE YOU PAY THEM BUT ONCE THEY GET YOUR MONEY THEY WILL TREAT YOU LIKE ANIMALS. I PROMISE.

MOST IMPORTANTLY: THE LVN COURSE DOES NOT COUNT FOR CREDIT ANYWHERE. IF YOU WANT TO ADVANCE TO RN YOUR GOING TO HAVE A HELL OF A TIME FINDING A BRIDGE PROGRAM THAT DOEST HAVE A TWO OR THREE YEAR WAIT LIST. YOUR BEST BET IS TO GO STRAIGHT TO RN AT A COMMUNITY COLLEGE. DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE I DID. THEY TREAT THE ALUMNI EVEN WORSE THAN STUDENTS. IF YOU THINK THEY ARE GOING TO HELP YOU FIND A BRIDGE PROGRAM OR A JOB WHEN YOU GRADUATE, YOU ARE IN FOR A RUDE SURPRISE. THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT THIER STUDENTS OR ALUMNI!

AVOID THIS SCHOOL

• Pros: none
• Cons: a lot (see details)

Pacific College Gets 5 Stars

by 2bnrse at Citysearch

I graduated from Pacific College in Costa Mesa in 2007. My training there totally prepared me for the State Board exam. I passed the first time that I took it! I am a single mother and knew that it was going to be hard, but I received a lot of help from the instructors and from the tutoring that I received. They truly cared about my education. I was referred to that college and would highly recommend it to anyone.

• Pros: small class size, large percentage of graduates passed Boards, have been in business a long time.....very stable, great staff!!!!!!!
