Does anyone have any feedback about this school? I read a post a while ago on here about St.Margaret that made me wonder if I should go there but everyone around here seems to think it's a great school. I would appreciate any feedback about the program,instructors,..or anything really.Oh my main concern..how was the entrance exam? I went to Sanford Brown a year ago & it was the worst mistake I've ever made..I don't want that to happen again!

Oh so u already took the exam?

To be honest I don't think I passed the science part but I'm praying I did better than I think. I pretty much guessed on the whole section but I think I passed everything else. Being a nurse is my dream & I'm going crazy waiting for the results!

Yes I took the RN exam did u take that one or the LPN one .. I really don't know if theres a difference. I got in the high 80's in 3 areas n low 90's in one ..i could have done better but didn't get much sleep/ nervous! I wanted to get my app in asap bc u have better chances but even though I applied back in may. I still havent heard from them because they pushed back my review date til sept 22nd, very sad/frustrated! I'm sure did well..if for some reason you didn't they allow you to take it one more time.

I took the LPN exam...from what I've heard the RN exam is a lot more difficult than the lpn exam.
