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 thought the test was extremely easy. I used the study guide for the board of ed's cnet exam. I did not take the cnet exam because I got into VEEB. Two friends of mine passed board of ed's exam also but decided to attend Veeb. They stated Veeb's entrance exam was easier. However Veeb is very intense. You HAVE 2 STUDY!!!!! BEST OF LUCK!

So, from my understanding Veeb is a best choice.It is a private School, the faculty will be help better than those professors in Balc. Am i right ?

Yes. The instructors at VEEB are very helpful and there is after school tutoring at 1pm Monday through Thursday for extra help if needed. Veeb gives you everything and more. It is up to you to retain the info for test time. Veeb will start testing in February.

Hey shantie, the entrance exam at VEEB is fairly basic in knowledge. I took the entrance exam in 2006 and as far as I can remember there are two parts to the exam. First being the mathematics which is generally at the 9th grade level and the 2nd part is a comprehension test. I think they grade you by the overall average and if you were above average you were likely to get an interview. I wouldn't be too consumed in worrying about what you need to know because if you have done well in high school, you should have no problems with this test. VEEB has a great program that helped me become an LPN! Anyways, hope this helps a bit and best of luck to you in 2008!

hello!!!!

i am going to veeb next week to "sign up" to take the entrance test.

besides getting my credits evaluated at adelphi (3.15) and malloy(2.95) this is my first real attempt at a test!!!

i am interested to see what VEEB has to offer. i would love to get my adn or bsn since i have about 54 units(but no math/science)....but i am 32 going on 33 and its soon to be baby making time and money is very tight as it is for everyone these days.(currently a hairstylist)

i read from this post that the entrance test is 9th grade math and 12th grade english. i am not worried about english...but feeling very silly about what is considered 9th grade math?? although i have 54 college units/credits i was never able to pass college algebra so i am worried about what is on this test. can anyone advise? can you give an example of math questions? is this an hour test??? just curious? is there a fee?

if i do pass this test...there is an interview? what do they ask???

also when i spoke to the woman on the phone they said to bring my birth certificate and high school diploma?

never been asked by any school for birth certificate or a high school diploma before...i dont even think i have a diploma....i graduated and have a transcript..but my actual diploma is probably lost ( i am old it was decades ago lol)

i am not from new york originally ..i have only been here for a few years.... i know nassau cc has a great adn program but sooo competitive....and the private schools are easier to get into but 25k for adelphi is veryyyyyyy scaryyyyyyyy.

although.... isnt veeb for one year somthing like 10-12k with books etc?

since i am not from here i am just worried.... do employers see VEEB as a great highly regarded educational program for lpns?

also ...if you had 54 units.... would you just suck it up and go for the bsn at adelphi or malloy?

like i said i am going to test at veeb but would really like to understand more since i am not able to get much info out the the receptionists over the phone.

thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!xoxo jenn
