I used to live in the northern VA area. I've checked a few flight schools' websites around the area and this one seems like a good one. Has anyone checked or attended this school? And should I save money by training with the Cessna 152, or spend some more and use the 172? thanks for the help

The C-152 and 172 are the same- small single engine land airplanes. As long as you fit in the C-152, fly it and same money. You can fly the 172 later (taking passengers, etc). I did my private, instrument, and most of my commercial in the C-152.

I wish I could find a 152 that is certified for IFR. I had a hell of a time trying to find a 172...
