I completed my CNA at Griffin Tech Fall 09 and got my license in Jan. Their program is inexpensive and takes 1qrtr and HOPE Grant will pay for it. I haven't looked for work yet, but i know of people who are now working as CNAs now. As far as the 3 science courses needed for the RN program at Gordon, you do have to have those completed along with the college algebra. They require at least 70% of courses completed especially sciences & math when applying to the nursing program. GOOD LUCK!

I starting studying for the TEAS as well and read that the ATI book is not good for the science portion. I read online to use a GED science book, that should fill in that gap for the TEAS science. Im using ATI TEAS study Manual and a GED Math book that i found. I will goto book store and review a GED science book then purchase from there. Good luck!

i just sat in the info session in humboldt park campus-chicago and the application deadline is feb 12 so they would not be sending letters out until after then. the first letter is approval to sit for the teas, after then they will use the teas scores along with the other program requiremnts to make selection for the june 2010 class. i hope that answers your quest. yes there's still hope for you to get in the next class!! good luck~

I agree with you. i personally have and will consider GPC as one of the schools to attend not only for their pass rate, but also they are a great affordable college. And as soon as i complete my cores, GPC is on my list. I also believe this forum nor anything else should not hinder one's choice of college (it hasn't hindered mine). I think everyone is entitled to their opinion and I personally don't let it bother me. However, some people do take these comments alittle too offensive.

:typing i never replied to the thread in the first place, my thread was to a specific person that has since responded to me months ago. my thread was not negative nor did i display a negative attitude all i said was i heard bad things about them (gpc). i personally like to hear the goods and definitely bads of any school. in case you forgot, we do live in a free country and i personally respect and don't have to agree with everyone’s comment whether it is good or bad. next, this site is for information purposes and word of mouth is always a great thing amongst people with a common interest. these comments are personal opinions and should not be taken personal because it would be a waste of time to. if you cannot handle people’s comments maybe you should not be on this site or any other site that displays peoples views for that matter. i have enjoyed all the reviews i have read particularly the nursing schools that are in the atlanta area thank you all for your comments, positive or negative!! i will make a responsible decision as to what school i will apply for next year.

to: nursebunky i currently attend griffin tech and i plan to transfer to a adn program after i complete my prereq's. i drove down to gordon to check out their facility and yes it was very far, but i am considering it. i was very impressed with their nclex pass rate. can you give me more info on them as to who i should talk to there about the program? how long did it take for you to get a job? and any other info or tips that maybe helpful????
