   I agree. Charles Drew is a reputable school, their nursing program just happens to be new and we have yet to see graduates from their MELN program.

   Congrats moonshadow! If you don't mind me asking, what was your teas score? and do they tell you what grade you got for your essay? How much was your total score out of a 100? I am applying for Feb deadline and still have to take one class this Oct.

3. National University Accelerated BSN

   vjmt_4 replied to yqin's topic in California

   Thanks! Yeah, I hate online classes too. I've only taken one online class before and got an A but I felt like I didn't really learn a lot coming out of it. My other issue is that the clinical locations seems to be far from the actual location of t...

   Thank you for sharing that, I am not working so I am fine with a schedule like that. It would actually work out great for me. I guess I will just have to hire a nanny if I get an off schedule or something every month because I don't think any daycare...

5. Is Compton College safe?

   vjmt_4 replied to tigertjc's topic in California

   So let me take the line "stay away from compton" back if the context of this sentence does not meet your standards. I apologize if I lacked to sugar coat it. Here goes, "If you have no other choice of any other nursing program but Compton, then go a...

   Quinenes, it's Concordia University Irvine. tothepointLVN, I do agree that if one has no other option but to go to Compton community college then of course you just take what you can get. I am just saying for those who have a choice to go to a bett...

   And did you not say "Where you go to school DOES matter?" you replied that to someone else and now you are contradicting yourself.

8. Is Compton College safe?

   vjmt_4 replied to tigertjc's topic in California

   This is what the forum is for, to learn from other people's experience and also hope someone else can learn from mine. I am not here to scare people off, if I sound like that then that's your opinion. I wished I had been in this forum before I deci...

9. Is Compton College safe?

   vjmt_4 replied to tigertjc's topic in California

   So I did not check their latest NCLEX rate, I guess that's something to brag about after all they did go up, right? For your info, I dropped out of the program because I do want to be a nurse, and a good one! I was called into acceptance to an MELN ...

10. Is Compton College safe?

    vjmt_4 replied to tigertjc's topic in California

    First of all, I also went to El Camino Torrance campus before I went to Compton and know by experience that the Compton center is nothing close to El Camino. They have their own Director and administration riding under ECC's name because they need ...

11. Is Compton College safe?

    vjmt_4 replied to tigertjc's topic in California

    Stay away from Compton. It does not matter whether they have no waiting list on their nursing program. There is a reason why there isn't a wait. You might get in but you might not get out of the program. The teachers are so unprofessional and the...

    vjmt_4 replied to yqin's topic in California

    Of course if the shorter program accepts me, I would do it at the drop of a hat!:) A lot of people seem to want to do it faster that's why I feel like my chances are slim. There is also that MELN program that just opened in Charles Drew...

13. National University Accelerated BSN

    vjmt_4 replied to yqin's topic in California

    I know, but it works out better for me because I heard the 12 month program is really fast paced and that would be more stressful for me since I have a two year old to take care of at the same time. I would hate to be away from her every day of the ...

14. National University Accelerated BSN

    vjmt_4 replied to yqin's topic in California

    Oh also, I wanted to know if they calculated GPA for all prereqs including oral communication, socio and psych? I saw on the website that they ask GPA from last 60 hours of coursework completed, I didn't quite understand what that means. Do they eve...

    vjmt_4 replied to yqin's topic in California

    I have to take the Biomed Stat, do you know how many times that class meets in a week? I am a little nervous about taking that class and not getting an A. I only have a 3.3 GPA on my science classes and the stat class would pretty much make a big di...
