Get a new job. Your boss will fire you in a ❤️ beat if you become an expense.

Do you have access to my other posts?

I did not go to Concordia. I go to another school that is not good. I did it because I did not want to wait 9 months for the next start date at a better program. Time was my motivation. If you have time, don't do it. I know about Concordia because I was looking into them. That's how I knew about their schools closing on the West Coast. My school got bought out by another company. If that didn't happen, we would have been the next Brightwood. I'm just glad my school didn't close.

I’m keeping it real. Almost anyone can do this degree. I encourage everyone that wants to do it to do it. They’ll pass. I’m 100 percent for the student getting what they paid for. A lot of these schools aren’t good and they charge Ivy League prices to get over on people who are desperate or too anxious. They got me, and I finish next month. I am not happy with what I paid for. You guys forget, we are the customers. We pay their bills they don’t pay hours.

You’re patting yourself on the back too much. If nursing school was that hard, a hard science like physics would be impossible. Imagine how hard it is to be a surgeon? When algebra is a prerequisite, they’re not looking for scholars. Just finish the program and be a good nurse. Btw, all schools are competency and GPA based. I got a 98 on my TEAS.

Don’t listen to people online. A lot of these people recruit for the school. Look at their NCLEX pass rate and compare their price and pass rates to public schools. That’s it. Go on Youtube and look up concordia school closures. As far as nursing school being hard, it isn’t. Busy work is time consuming, not hard. Hard is when you study your *** off, know the material, and barely pass. This isn’t that type of program.

I graduate in 2 months. School is easy. For profit schools are bad schools. The education isn't good. Look at the NCLEX pass rates. They are good indicator of the school. Go somewhere else. You're paying a lot of money for an inferior education.

Go to a non profit school unless you’re 50, and you need it done fast. Trust me

Hey, was the BSN worth it? I see ADN's still. I'll have my BSN next month. Was it worth the investment? And are ADN's being fazed out?

there is another guy on here that said nursing isn't evidenced based practice. It's good to know that when your giving emergency treatment, that somebody with a license is just going to go with their gut!

Are you a nurse or a patient? I just said that him and Obama are smart. I'm pretty sure Hillary is too. ----------------------------

He's the president, wealthy, and he went to an Ivy league school and did well. You think he doesn't know what he's doing? He also has advisors who are lawyers, judges, etc. I don't think this applies to life saving procedures. Saying Trump is not intelligent is like Saying Obama isn't intelligent. They're smart.

Nursing school is very easy compared to other majors. I am in an accelerated BSN program, 2nd degree, and it's easy. Problem is that if you don't work in a big hospital in the Bay Area, CA, you're not going to make much. There are also a lot of nurses that can't get jobs. I would say that if it's something you want to do, go for it. It's going to be a lot easier than getting a degree in physics, picking strawberries, or working out like Manny Pacquiao.

I read your comment because of that cat.

I would look up Concordia Nursing school closure on Youtube. They have new reports on it closing in Oregon and I believe in Texas in the next month. Good luck.

Is this correct? Concordia closed its nursing programs on the west coast. Be careful you guys.

No other school needs to accept their credits the way Concordia didn't accept other private school credits. This shows that Concordia and it's employees did not care about their students. Teachers are made aware of the closures months before the students are. That is a law, yet teachers at these schools like to waste student's time to get as much money from them as possible. Teacher's at this school do not care about the students. They still give unnecessary busy work that they know has no value. Here is a warning for students. If most of the teachers are young, run. That means you're being taught by teachers who couldn't make it in a hospital. To the student who started this thread, I am sorry to hear about your problem.

How, nursing school is easy. If you can't pass nursing school, then maybe, school isn't for you.

I think most learning problems come from poor teaching or unnecessary stress. These programs are not difficult, but a lot of teachers make it seem like they're teaching scientists to find a cure for cancer or making a rocket to stop an asteroid. It's mostly nonsense to boost egos of insecure people. I know for fact that there were students who were getting Cs that were smarter than me. I get As. They were just so stressed, they tried to learn the whole book while I just remembered the stuff I thought would make me a bad *** nurse. We even had people who were one semester ahead of us talk to us like they were Captain America. They were probably lousy students, and people were buying their nonsense. It's mind boggling.

Good post dude. I am in an accelerated BSN program. Way easier than my previous degree. My friend is in one too. My school is a private for profit school. His is at a CSU. Our tests are the same, and they both rely heavily on ATI. My school has a much better NCLEX pass rate. Go figure. Anyways, neither of us think it's hard. That's just us. However, most of my classmates were struggling last semester despite bragging about how well they were doing. It was all an act. When exams came, they would stress and look for shortcuts instead of really trying to master the material like a boss. They also relied heavily on homework and projects to pass. Most of these people were very critical of others and made students that were doing a little bit worse than them feel bad. The better students like yours truly, didn't stress and were always positive. Here is my advice. Stick with it. You will be fine. Don't compare yourself to others. Be the best version of you possible, and that will be more than enough to succeed. Peace

And this my good lady is why the state compact should not apply to California and travel nurses should not be allowed to work in California unless their is a shortage of nurses. I do not live in California, but... I respect the work that they did to achieve what they have; high pay and safe working standards. People in other states who didn't bleed and sweat to make the changes in their state because they were either too scared or lacked the drive, do not deserve what California has. You guys are awesome!

Unfortunately, this is not true. The DNC railroaded Bernie Sanders. Jill Stein was accused of being a Trojan Horse. I am a member of the Green Party and campaigned for her. Remember, Hillary Clinton called nurses overpaid maids and minority kids Super Predators. Rand Paul is not Ron Paul and unfortunately Jill Stein will never run again. It doesn't matter anyways, Donald Trump is going to win big. Joe Biden's voting record and previous political stances hold a lot more weight than his rhetoric and unlike Bernie Sanders who let Biden slide, Trump won't. Regardless of my political view, I didn't vote for Trump or Obama, I support this country's president because this is my home. Cheers!

They seem the same to me. I would say Jill Stein and Ron Paul are the real liberals and conservatives the others vote the same. I was a Jill Stein supporter. The DNC hates me more than the GOP. According to the DNC, I’m a Russian agent and work with Trump.

You’re right! Did Brightwood make it?

If the program closes a week before you graduate your sol. Not even The cool sounds of Maroon 5 will make you feel better. Ask Brightwood students. I wonder where this disinformation comes from. It’s absurd. Anyways, good luck. I just need the license. My previous bachelor’s degree will get me into a masters program in a state school.
