I can only speak to the RN to FNP program and your course load varies from semester to semester. It can be cumbersome but it’s doable. I’m attending while also working a full time job. They do not find clinicals for you. You have to find your own.

I was also wondering if there are any good podcasts or playlists on Youtube or something that might be good to take a look at? I am in the FNP program but will eventually do their emergency NP track as well. So I would love resources for either. Than...

Thank you. It's just so difficult during the program because we are responsible for finding our own preceptor. I found one for when I do start clinicals but have not worked with her yet but I am hoping that she will be able to guide me. Also, I am in...

I thought that Texas was not a very restrictive state. All the research that I have done has led me to believe that the NPs in Texas do not need the supervising physician. Or if they do, that they physician only has to look at like 10 percent of the ...

sometimes classes will open up because some people will drop out for one reason or another. I had this issue with my A&P II course. I was enrolled in a fast track course so that I could take A&P I and II in the same semester. I got into A&...
Maybe someone should start a Facebook page for our cohort. We could help each other out and form study groups and stuff if we have contact with everyone.

Its just weird to me to have an ACLS certification at all if not to use what you are certified for? Why would there be an ACLS certification if not to use it. My philosophy is that I have the certification as the RN or paramedic or whatever to know ...
