i recently got accepted to both los angeles city college AND los angeles valley college & upon googling the crap out of both schools to see which one was better i've come up with...
LAVC being the top choice. BUT. i need some feedback on students that actually went to school (either LACC or LAVC).
is LACC really that under funded & under staffed? i want to go there because it's literally two blocks away from my house and i'm going to assume that the clinical sites will be a lot closer too the LACC area.
but if LACC is really THAT bad of a school then i guess i can study during the traffic on the 101. HA!
(mamomi) thanks! i dnt hav books yet, I dnt hav money...what about you? the fireclass was fun but the rain was pourin so badly during our orientation.Are you the iomi? Because I thought I heard the professor called your name.
Hey there JMESR: Congrats on your admission to both schools! I did a little research for you and found out that for both years, LACC has higher NCLEX passing rate than LAVC. Especially for year 2010-2011, LACC is 95.45%, and LAVC is 91.86%. To me, that is a big difference. I have been to both places before, I have attended many classes at LACC and the staffs are all very nice and superb. I have been to both Nursing departments many times as well and I feel that LACC has very nice counselor and other staffs. LAVC however, has one rude Nursing staff (don't know her name). When I called and told her my name, she said I can't pick the name I want and I need to use my real name? I did use my REAL name! Oh god. She then told me that I should not put the name I used before (I changed my name at the beginning of this year) under "name used:xxx", but rather "aka:xxx" (but I am not this name anymore!), because "name used" does not mean anything to her. Anyways, I got tired of the conversation even though I wrote that under the guidance of the front desk staff at LAVC when filled out my application. It gives me a feeling and make me worried about the quality of the overall LAVC staff. I personally liked the campus of LAVC better than LACC mainly due to the location. Otherwise, the NCLEX really is what you are going for and I would not risk myself for a bad traffic everyday during the intensive nursing program. Hope it helps!
lacc has higher nclex passing rate than lavc. especially for year 2010-2011, lacc is 95.45%, and lavc is 91.86%. to me, that is a big difference.
that's hardly a difference 3.59% certainly not one to base making a big decision like this on. also this post is 2 years old it's likely the op has already grad
