I just started working there and I see where people might get the frustration on their tactics. In the end, the school is actually a good thing for all girls. It goes beyond modeling and acting but how to promote yourself, interview skills, self respect, nutrition, exercise, time management, etc. These are all LIFE skills that EVERYONE should want to better themselves. If they do not become a top model or famous actress, they will still have the knowledge and confidence to enhance their quality of life to someday put toward a career or life lessons. If you focus on the negative then you will not get anything out of the program or even in life. The girls can take what they learned and turn it into positive results. ("We become more successful WHEN we are happier and more positive" Shawn Anchor) I truly believe this is a great thing for girls of all ages- I am 32 years old and would actually love to attend their program, just as a way to better my self. Okay, I am off the soap box :)

BIG TIME SCAM!!!!! Do not waste your money on this place... They even try to screw over their employees, One of the students homework assignments is to recruite as many friends as they can, they have to get friends phone numbers so Barbizon can call and try to get them to sign up.... They're a freakin joke! I went to school there when I was like 16, and I worked there about a yr ago... only for like a week because I couldn't be a part of their scam! So I know from experience. Trust me!!! I would rate them zero stars if it would let me.
