Hi everyone! This is my first thread. I currently have a BA and have taken some of my pre-req's to get into an RN program. I have done a lot of research and was considering an accelerated BA to BSN program or an RN program at a JC. I need to work full-time though and the accelerated programs and RN programs are expensive and all full-time. Also I have been trying for awhile to get a Microbiology class and it is very difficult to get in. Anyways I was considering just doing a part time lvn program. There is a school in Redlands called ABC educators that has a part-time lvn program. I was wondering if anyone has gone there or knows any information on the tuition cost? The website doesn't offer much information. I would highly appreciate any feedback. Thx

Hello,
I attended the program you are questioning.
I feel i learned very little, I'm just sick about the whole experience.
My only hope is that I can pass nclex, but I have no confidence in working in the acute arena.
I have no confidence in my nursing ability at all! (actually crying as I write this)
To me the experience was a complete disappointment. Be patient with the community college programs, learn from my mistake and be patient!
If anyone knows of programs that will teach you skills in the IE, im all over it...please let me know

I think at one time or another we all fear we haven't got what it takes to pass the NCLEX, but hopefully you'll do okay. It all depends on how hard you're willing to work for it, from beginning to end. A nursing program is like anything else in life: you get out what you put in. When you're in school it is your own responsibility to seek out the experiences you need. No one is going to just hand it to you.
I loved ABC. I loved the instructors and appreciated everything they did for me. They inspired me to do my best, and that's what got me through the program. There's nowhere else I could have gotten the personal attention and support that I needed.
Good luck on your NCLEX.
