I just finished my Block III at Chandler Gilbert Community College and I will never ever recommend this school to anyone! I am actually in the process of looking for other school right now, it is very stressfull since many of them are full. On our Block II there, we lost 12 or more good students, and same thing happened with our Block III - only two passed on our third exam and the class average was at 61%. The instructors don't really care whether you fail or not, they are not willing to help you, plus their lectures, reading assignments, books etc. does not really help with the exam, their tests are very advanced (Block III). If that many students are failing, there's gotta be something wrong. In addition, if you ask other school, like MCC or Gateway, they are always full with their Block III and IV but if you ask CGCC, there are always many spots available for Block III and IV... "no wonder why!"

You can try to find out the NCLEX pass rates for the various programs in your area. For example, my school has a 98% pass rate, but that info was buried in a lot of other info. I ran across it randomly, actually. But my understanding is that most programs do publish that info somewhere.

Totally off topic, but I miss Arizona! I don't want to live there full time, but I'd like to live there January through April. Too bad I'm locked in at my workplace for the next few years.....
