Hey, Thank you RN2BEE84 This helped me alot with my decision. I wasn't sure about Concord because the program still new and they did not have any graduation yet ,but this site list Concord as fully Creddited for their RN program so I think that I'll just take my chances and go there for my RN.

Isn't Cocncord an accredited school, I think that they are also approved by the state of Florida. I know a couple people that went to Concord for the LPN program and they work in a hospital and rehabilitation center

So if Concord is not an accredited school yet, how is it possible for them to offer the assoc. degree for RN program? Would the degree be valid by the board? As far the cost, I have all my pre requi, except speech from FCCJ, I was told( by Kath from Concord) that those classes could be transferable and the cost of the program would go down to be around $17. I'm so unsure, I just don't want to be seating around waiting to get to FCCJ RN program. So when is the first 2 classes graduation date? I was thinking to try for the Sep. class. the RN program in FCCJ is about 18 months as well after the pre-requi. thank you

I'm thinking about going there for the RN. what do u think? do you recommend Concord for the RN program?

Yeah, sure, the books are big help. Maybe this was a sign for u to stay at FCCJ but Concord gives u credit for the classes that u already have so your tuition would be much cheaper, my friend is a LPN and her coworker is going to Concord and his full tuition is $13.000.

RN2BEE84 what about FCCJ, have u consider on going there?

Hey, let me know hoe the NEt is like. I'm going to take it next month, I need a little more time to study

Oh they do, I guess I was going to fast to try to finish that test on time in that little time they give us that I did not see any multiple choice for math, I did really bad, I think I got 11 or 12 and they told that the little extra point comes if we older than 30. I never bother to go back to take that test over.

Hey, I forgot to ask you, how do you study for the verbal section at the NAT

Hey, Grongatulations, you did good....you should try to go to Keiser, the pre entrance test it's like concord but it doesn't not have multiple choice and I think you need a 19 or 20, and the accreditation it's the same as FCCJ. Also you have time to take the NET over at FCCJ before Concord fall program start, you can take the NET, add up your new scores and micro and any other class and see how your numbers look and then see if maybe u should try at FCCj because I think that after you finish your micro class and take the NET over u might have enough points to get into FCCJ. Well, that's what I'm going to do, the only think that I regret I did not push my self hard enough to get A in AP and Micro, I ended up with B, but I'm just going to have to try harder for the NAT. Well, don't matter where we go to get our RN degree, we need to stay positive, study hard and do well on those classes for us not to loose our seats, because I heard that Concord is also very challenging, but so is FCCJ.

so, are you taking RN or LPN? Been that the classes goes so fast, do the teaches tell you on what to focus for the test or do they make you study the whole book, also do they give you notes or is it all straight from the book? Do you recommned this school for RN? So you say that concord classes are not transfered, but what if someone get a nursing degree fron concord, could they take that the degree to a diff school to get the bachelors?

Well, take the test. This test is good for one year, so it gives you enough time to look into other places.

so if you fail a class, they let you take that class again with the next group or you will need to reapply all over again? Are u in for LPN or RN? 4 weeks for Human Anatomy is really short, did you learn anything? What is the passing grade at concorde is it 75 or 80, cause FCCJ is 80. I'm going to take the NEt for the fall, is the test hard? Do you know anything as far accreditation, because I heard something that people that graduates from Concord can not get a job outside Florida, is it true?

Hey did u look into chamberlain nursing school, it's new in Jacksonville and the accreditation is the same as FCCJ

I think that the NET is only reading and math
