Thank you so much for the information. As a new grad in LA now, what do you think is a reasonable starting rate? and when you were a new grad were you/did you negotiate or just took the whatever was given to you at first?

Hi everybody, I recently am looking for private college that have LVN programs specifically Career Care Institute (Lancaster location). I just have a few questions if anyone here attended that school. How hard was the entrance exam?I was told there was an interview as well, if entrance exam is passed. What kind of questions was asked?Did you feel that their classes help you with the licensing exam? What was your experience like?If you are comfortable answering, after the program how much debt did you accumulate? How much did financial aid help.Did they help you find a job after? Was it one of the clinical sites?Where was did clinicals take place? Were they good sites?How long did you after until you find a job?What was your starting rate if you don't mind me asking?Last and probably not the least, did you pass the NCLEX-PN? Did you feel like their programs was a big contributor to your results?

Hello everyone, I have decided to go to a private school to become an LVN and because for sure there are people on here that will tell me to just go for my RN, I'll just answer that too. I'm choosing the LVN path due financial reasons, I got bills to pay and a family that I need to care for. This route I feel is the best for me and my family. Personally, taking it step by step is what comfortable for me. I also want to make sure that nursing is the right path for me. I just thought I'd ask out of curiosity how much new grads get paid in California specifically in LA are since there are no recent threads (2019-2020). How long until you found a job after passing the class and of course getting licenses? How many interviews? What was your starting rate? (if you are comfortable can you please include which area) Did you negotiate or just took whatever they gave? Please feel free to drop as much details as you like ?
