I was excited about becoming a CNA. I signed up with this school and it was a terrible mistake. The teachers don't seem to care whether you do well or not. I felt that they just wanted my money. You don't do anything but listen the first two weeks. No hands on stuff what so ever. At the end of the third week your start go out and doing your clinicals. You learn the hands on things the excact same week. Clinicals start Friday and hands on practice begins Monday. That is not a lot of time to hone your skills. The skills they show you that you need they take you into a cramped room with 20 other people and you can't even see what they are trying to teach you. The people in the front saw it but we didn't. So we told her that we couldn't see and she said to bad. I was terrified going to clinicals because I hadn't even mastered taking vitals. But they sent us anyway. We were put into groups into the clinics with supervisors that just watch. We were so nervous. The instructor at the clinics said that Med Prep students were the worst trained. The instructor said that he told everybody to stay away from Med Prep. Well long story short I finished the class and went to take my state exam. I failed the test miserably. I talked to a couple of other students that were in my class and none of them passed either. Please don't make the same mistake I did. Go somewhere else.
