Published

I have been accepted to the RN program at Glendale Community College as well as Pasadena City College (both in southern Cal.). I am on the horns of a dilemma as to which schol to attend. Please post comments, suggestions, ect. Cost & location are not a factor. I am very appreciative to have both opportunities but it is hard to decide. If info is confidential, please send me a private message. Any & all info is helpful.

i would look up your state board of nursing stats to see which of the two schools have the highest passing rate for first time nclex test takers.

I would do a search of the forums for the names of these two cities to see if the names of any forum members attending these schools turn up from listing them in their posts. Then PM them and ask. I live in Arcadia which is right next to Pasadena, but went to a nursing school somewhere else many years ago. I don't want to give you wrong information, but I have heard there have been problems at Pasadena. What the nature of them was, I cannot remember. As you know, however, these are both very nice suburban communities with some nice hospitals where the student clinicals are done.
