which school to choose

[random_thought]

hello to everyone! i've been reading through the threads and it was of great help for me. i'm a 2nd courser scouting for a REPUTABLE school to attend. i've inquired and have been assessed in different institutions, but these two stand out (because of their programs, schooling duration and proximity), dr. carlos lanting and st. joseph. not to start any flaming between graduates and students of both schools, pero i'd like to hear some feedback regarding these schools. any input will be much appreciated. TIA and more power!

I know what you meant the first time around, I was just messing with you. "Sad to say" is a common expression we Filipinos use. Anyway, I'm glad to know someone here is from the same batch as I am. I almost forgot about that Pinatubo eruption until you brought it up in your post. The aftermath was quite a sight to behold -- everything's covered in a layer of ash. What I do remember about that NLE is that it took until December before we got our results. I heard it is much faster for the PRC to release results now. At least, that's some progress, huh? So did you work somehwere else before you came to the US?

Now, PRC release the NLE results within a month so that's progress but it is still paper and pencil exam. How I wish we could have an exam similar to the NCLEX, you know, the CAT type of exam.

I worked for more than a year as volunteer staff nurse and then worked as a med rep for several years until I resigned this January 2006.
