   All, just thought I would share my experience with the AANP-FNP examination. I passed on the 30th of Dec.. Here is how I prepared. First of all my FNP program left a lot to be desired. I was by no means prepared for the exam but realized in order to ...

2. Why graduate nurses can't find jobs- a must read!!!

   eyorkfd replied to ttreeds's topic in New Nurse

   Here is my two cents on the topic. I think that many of the recent grads got into nursing because of all the "hype" surrounding the profession. This "hype" is very similar to the mid to late 90s Information Technology boom, which we all know came cru...

   I took the NCLEX-RN Monday 6/30/2008 and found out this morning that I PASSED!!!! That is the most humbling examination I have ever taken. I finished with 75 questions. The makeup was mostly SATA, 10 meds, and a LOT of priority. I normally don't post...
