VEEB LPN Program (info request)

U.S.A. New York

Published

Hi All,

I'll be starting at VEEB in the Fall and was wondering if there are any current or past VEEB students that can give some info on this program.

What are the Teachers like?

What are the required books?

Is the program as intense as they say?

Do they have articulation agreements with other nursing (RN) programs? If so, with who?

Are there any disadvantages in taking the LPN course outside of a Community College setting?

Do they provide job Placement at the end???

Any information that ANYONE can provide will be GREATLY appreciated! I really want to have a full understanding of what I'm in for. I have 2 year old Twins and I am a little worried about whether or not I'll be able to juggle school/studying and Family!

I just pick up my application for the entrance exam for next wednesday.I believe thats the last testing date

my question is whats the exam like? am really great with reading but Math and i are just not friends. So please anyone whats on the math exam.

Hi Paul11238,

The hardest part of the exam is pacing yourself because you are trying to beat the clock...so review with a GED book and time yourself. If you go though this thread you will find a lot of helpful information. I believe someone even put an example of the math.. I wish you the best of luck:up:

From what I can remember it was fractions, decimals basic addition, subtraction and intergers...know the rules for intergers and you should be good to go. no metric conversions, I do believe there was algebra and no geometry

This blog is very informative i wish i had come accross it earlier.... but everything happens for a reason....i just recently took the pre entrance exam for veeb on April 13th....i was confident about my reading comprehension and the vocab but not sooo confident about the math.....i knew about the test 3 days before hand and tried to study until my eyes were sore! so that my math was up to par for the test.....unfortunately im not feeling to confident about the test and my entrance into the program....im a lil disapointted in myself because i have always wanted to be a nurse for as long as i could remember..i cant see myself doing anything else... my heart and soul would be completely in it...this is not just a venture to make more money for me... it so much more than that...having complete and total compassion for people and helping others is something i love and need to do .... i became a lil hopeful when i saw they had the brigde program then atleast maybe there would be a lil hope....but i see their not offering it anymore so i quickly became discouraged again.....idk i gues i just needed to vent a bit lol....im hoping for a mmiracle to happen and god answer to this one prayer....and if it doesnt happen i guess its in not my will to happen right now.....*sigh* well to all my accepted students congrats!!!!! send a small prayer for me that by some chance i make it in!!!! and ill be praying for you guys that you all succeed in this program and become compassionate professionals in this nursing field!!!!!! best of luck to you alll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D:nurse::yeah: God bless

hi Nicole, tomorrow I going there to drop my down payment. I fell much better after this letter. Additionally, I will need to speak with them about financial aid too. VEEB is not a college and I am not sure would they accept fafsa and another types of grants. So tomorrow we will see. How was your meeting with financial gay. Do they have any unusual requirement for financial aid and what is next step after the down payment ?
