The school is good if you don't let the gossip of the other angry students get to you. The teachers are very fair if you stay on the honest side. They tend to make things harder when students challenge and act "entitled". I never had any issues with Teterboro campus. I attended before, during, and recently graduated in feb. 2021. 

Failed my exit exam the first time and you must wait 1 month (took 5 weeks actually!) for them to let my class retest. Had 45 students in my class. 6 people passed the first exit. You can take up to 4 times I believe. 

5 semesters, plus a mandatory 4 week "senior Seminar" they failed to mention to me and tons of other students.

OH if you fail the first exit. It's 60$ to take it every time thereafter, which I thought was insane! 

No permission to park on campus if you are in semesters 1-3. But 4 & 5 semester, and senior seminar, and for exit exams you may park there. (I always just parked across the high way at Walmart, but really sucks if you are running late.) 

Like I said, the school wasn't that bad. Was just lots of homework given WEEKLY. 

Semesters 1-3 however I know a lot of people who studied test bank questions to understand more than the teacher taught. The tests apparently were very similar but I do not recommend if you will use that as a way to pass. You must understand everything you are learning, or when it comes to the exit..you will REGRET IT!! Big time!! Seen a lot of people in that school for over 2 years, going on 3 years (its supposed to range from 15 months-18 months!) Due to not fully understanding concepts. It's in your best interest to set aside at least ONE HOUR every day. ONE HOUR.

If I can suggest leaving books in bathroom, and while you poop...READ! Or type in codes for book and do quizzes with immediate results with rationales. Reading the rationales is EVERYTHING! Do not wait until you've taken 50, 100, 150 questions...then at the end see what you got right or wrong, NO! Do not do that! 

IMMEDIATE ANSWERS AND RATIONALES IS THE WAY TO GO!

*****ALTERNATE FORMAT BOOK...TYPE IN BOOK CODE, DO COMPREHENSIVE QUIZ****** REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW.  (its legit the exit exam! - well at least the second one I heard ? )

GOOD LUCK, AND don't FEED INTO THE NEGATIVE PEOPLE!! They will fail based off of their pessimism. Stay optimistic and you shall pass! 

Hey im willing to do questions with anyone... will help me study for NCLEX since I graduated and waiting to figure out how to do my stupid background check in nj. if anyone knows when that will happen, that would be helpful...thanks!
