[NVega]

Is anyone enrolling into the 2012-2013 Mid-Manhattan/brooklyn/coler goldwater Lpn program? Anyone graduated from there? Hows the registration process like? Are the entrance exams hard? What color are the uniforms for students? Im going to register for the 2012-2013 class and need some insight on the program. Is it a good program to go to? Im also interested on the BOCES lpn program but found it to expensive:eek:

I'm going to register tomorrow for the same day 03/03 I going to purchase the 55 dollar one I believe its the updated version or something I have read alot posts on this school and they say the guides are very helpful and just like the tests and to use a ged or sat book for the vocabulary so those are the guides I am going to study with hopefully score high enough to get in so I wish both of us much luck and I believe the scrubs are blue I read on one of these threads

I wish us lots of luck and hope we get in. Im really bad in math, so i have really need to brush up on the math. Which location are you taking the test at? I chosed the one on 26st.

[shanie818]

when I registar it will be for the same site on 26th. I am bad in math as well so thats my main focus and the vocabulary I read that section a little hard as well so hopefully the study guides will com quickly and we'll have about three monts to study

I haven't even ordered my study guide yet. I need to order asap. It looks like they take a while to mail the materials to you. I registered for the test last week and i haven't recieved my exam permit yet.

[shanie818]

Yeah they do seem to take there time from what I have read from other posters. Have you applied to others schools?

[shanie818]

Are only applying for mid manhattan and brooklyn? Are you applying to Goldwater too.

[NVega]

I only applied to doe. Idk which one to pick but i will prob choose the mid manhattan or if i score high enough, i will pick the goldwater location.

[shanie818]

You can apply for goldwater separately I emailed them and they gave me a test date for last week but i had strep throat so i have to reschedule. They first have you take a tabe but its suppose to much easier then the rave a then if you pass you see able to take there prep for the CNET which is January to May I believe about three days out the week. Once the is over you take the CNET if pass you take the tabe A and of course if you meet they income requirement the lpn program will be free with the condition that you commit to health and hospital corporation for a year or two

[NVega]

Oh, i did not know that..... Thanks for telling.:) So that means you have to take 4 test in total?

Where can i find the goldwater information? Do they have a website?

[shanie818]

Hey sorry had to put the little down he was fighting it tonigh. The is 212-442-3768 you leave you name and email and they will email there application and come requirement etc.. You dont have to take four test they run together to my understanding Goldwater you take a basic Tabe suppose to be very basic you pass you get in the prep class for The CNET and then you the tabe A just like for mid manhattan and bklyn so lets say you God forbed fail the cnet its for all three schools you will have to wait until nest year I hope I haven't confused you. The email you back with in a day.
