Any chamberlain grads from Tinley Park?

Published

failed nursing school at jjc by.3%. I reapplied and jjc got me on a wait list. So I'm looking at chamberlain in Tinley park. I like how it's accelerated but I been reading some bad reviews about this school. Has anyone attended this scool and tell me about their experience? Did any grads have any trouble finding a job after wards? Is the HESI exam hard?

If u don't mind me asking how is jjc program? I Just got accepted. Super nervous after seeing u failed by such a small percentage. I Was looking into chamberlain but it's much to expensive for me.

For me it was a little disorganized to be honest. And every teacher there teaches differently which kind of made it hard what to study for on tests. They would give us quizzes and tell us it would be about our homework. So I would do the home work and study the subject and then some more in to depth into it but I would literally fail every single quiz. Everything that was on the quiz had absolutely nothing to do with the material they told us to look at. Except one quiz that I didn't study for; I actually passed. I had this clinical instructor that wasnt very good at teaching; she would at one time have the while class confused and when we asked a question she just made us more confused.

Basically I passed my whole class with an 82%

But in tests and quizzes I had a 79.7%

So because my test and quizzes area wasn't 80% I didn't pass. They tell u this in the beginning so I was confused why my instructor didn't call me to tell me I failed. So I emailed her and asked did I pass and she said yes. So I figured maybe they gave me a break bc it was .3%

Nope they told me during registration for 2nd semester my teacher should have called bc I didn't pass.

Chamberlain doesn't look so bad just the cost. I'm going in for interview with them soon just to give it a shot. And I'll get my bsn rather than associates.

Was it just one class that you failed? That's sucks that you came so close and the instructor gave you false reassurance. I got accepted into the Lpn to rn bridge and so I can relate when u speak of un organization and tests being off topic. I Wish you the best of luck with your future endeavors!
