What a waste of time and money. I took the insurance medical billing and coding program. I do not feel like I received the necessary education in order to succeed in this field of work. My externship was a big joke, they sent me to a podiatrist (foot doctor) for 30 days who only looked for students because she was in need of office cleaning. She did not teach me anything besides how to clean the office to her standards. She did not even know how to code. She was just the receptionist. On my last day she said she would have to call for another student because she needs help with cleaning. DO NOT GO TO THIS SCHOOL!! Although I graduated with honors, because I had no choice besides to finish because I was young and did not do research before applying, so I might as well graduate. I do not feel this was a good program. You end up making 10-12 dollars an hour. You can do that without spending $7,000 dollars on a student loan through sallie mae. I cant afford to pay off the loan because I do not make enough. I ended up working as a leasing consultant for a management company.

Please,save your money and your self respect,don't be belittled and mad to feel stupid,I have attended 8.5 months of the 12 month LPN program, It has been the worst shcool I have ever attened,they are constantly trying to get rid of you, I have 10 people out of 33 left,Constant busy work, Can't ever get all my points on home work,never good enough,I was told to go to fincal aid they were not open, Came back took A final, was told I failed the course because while i was at fincal aid the teacher told the rest of class "before class started" while I was gone, to turn in a paper that was checked off the day before as complete.Concorde is setup to fail you by 3rd term at that point you owe all the money.Concorde is about profit not education.P.S.they are being investicated by the gov. for the amount of students that start and owe all money and are failed out.

This place is horrible. Luckily I was 3 points shy and am attending Casa Loma, a WAY better school. The tests are made so you can purposefully flunk. The 110 practicum teacher was a former prison nurse and is very hostile. The poicy is constantly changing day to day. The only thing that I liked was the lunch truck and even they charged too much. They have a measely 45% NCLEX-PN pass rate. That's less than half. The grading is 80% tests only. nothing else counts. I don't think that the students have a good grasp on everything because quizzes and homework aren't worth a damn. I love Casa Loma. I'm getting a 90% average there where at Concorde I was getting a 75%. Don't waste your money. Come to Casa Loma.
