Flag Review - Rating:
- I lived in NYC for 10 years. I worked hard, I struggled and one day, out of the blue, I decided to move to Los Angeles to be closer to my son. Here in LA, I started to think - more like - meditate about my future at my age. Still struggling, I helped people - I liked it - I gave my support and advice (non-paid). Now I decided to attend nursing school - Listening to others motivating me by telling me -"You should be a nurse! Also - finally I could help people also when it comes to illness, by learning LVN and get paid for. Central Nursing College was my school of choice and I am glad for my choice. I had wonderful teachers, like Ms. Carter and Mr. Coars, if you pay attention their lectures you will pass not only ATI, also NCLEX! Central Nursing College all the staff, from the teachers to the DON are here to help each student individually with their needs. Any question, any struggle, asking the staff, they will always listen and help to improve. They do the students both of favors - let to them the favor by doing yourself a favor and listen, learn, study and PASS!
