This school is the worst mistake I couldQuite BrightPreLaw and Legal
This school is the worst mistake I could have ever made. Thankfully, I applied myself and learned the most I could despite the fact that 80% of what I learned I taught myself. All this school wants is your money. They tell people how easy it will be to get a job when you "graduate," but fail to help you do so. There are people who attended that had felonies on their record who were told that they would be able to get a job easily with their education. Seriously? They let ANYONE come here who will pay them money. People who are preparing to be in the professional world are running down the halls shouting, having their "grills" in, baggy pants, screaming like little 5 year olds. It is ridiculous. The graduating ceremony was weak and lame. Not the rewarding experience you would hope to recieve after receiving your associate's degree. If I could go back in time, I would have gone to a community college for 2 years for CHEAPER and gotten my degree from a respectable place. Do your research people.

Question
I took the pharm tech program.AveragePharmacy
I took the pharm tech program. and the math was less the adequate. They had virtually no compounding math. and the students were stoners and gang banger type. The teacher was to busy trying to be cool too even see whats was going on in his class. he wasted so much time on telling his personal stories it made me sick. the rumor there was he was going out with one of his students. I had a 3.95 GPA and perfect attendance. I cannot find a job in the desert area because the area has been flooded with that profession and they dont care. They just want your money

Question
The school is about 10 years out dated .BrightOther
The school is about 10 years out dated .Teachers were nice and helpful.But some didnt have a clue about certain courses they were trying to teach.When it came to medical coding we were sharing books and couldnt take any of those books home for study.I saw times that our books we did get might take one to two weeks to get them ,like they don't know how many students they had and order acordingly.The externship now theres a joke.We got treated like we had some kind diease or something.I believe that over 90 % of my fellow graudates can find any work.We are not prepared for the real world because because of out dated material and just teaching enough to get by.So if your wanting to get into a field to bettet your life dont waste your money or your time.,because the only thing your coming away with is a big loan that will make matters worst.
