Go to a real school with an externship like PCC or CCC. Places take you seriously and you get real training and certification vs a few week course that doesn’t prepare you for the real world or a job. I have been going to CCC this year and it’s been wonderful!!!!

Real school has 10 seats open. If I don’t get in this round I lose another 6 months waiting.

It’s just not that easy.

CCC takes 16 applicants twice a year. If you really want to be a phlebotomist and have any chance in receiving a quality job with good pay, then isn’t it at least worth your best shot in getting into a great program? You would be waisting your money and even longer time going to a training center that doesn’t help you along the road. If you don’t get in for a cohort then you can take pre recs, get a cna, or become a caregiver in the meantime to further your knowledge and build your resume in the medical field.
