   FNP student disliking family practice

   MiahMSN replied to MiahMSN's topic in NP Students

   Thanks for the replies. I agree, I need to try a different clinical setting, which is why I'm hoping I can do my last 80hrs in urgent care (or even retail clinic might be interesting). And I agree, not every nurse needs to go to NP school just beca...

   FNP student disliking family practice

   Post-masters FNP student here, will graduate in May 2017. I'm starting to realize I dislike family practice and can't see myself doing this. It seems a like a never ending rat race, not enough time to see pts, finish charts, review labs, and the th...

   I'm doing a post-master's FNP with Husson University in Bangor, Maine. I'm in California. Chose Husson after researching dozens (and I do mean DOZENS) of online programs. They were one of the most affordable and the program director is AMAZING! I...

    NP school reputation

    MiahMSN replied to Jules A's topic in NP

    Synaptic NP, it seems you are arguing brick and morter vs online, and I could be wrong, but I think JulesA is referring to quality of program and specifically for profit schools. The two are not one in the same, IMO, as I know of several quality pu...

    Any California NPs out there, yet you completed an NP program in a different state?

    MiahMSN replied to MiahMSN's topic in NP

    Any California NPs out there, yet you completed an NP program in a different state?

    MiahMSN posted a topic in NP

    I'm applying to post-masters FNP programs for spring admission and the programs I've selected are all out of state (due to flexibility with online didactic, limited campus visits, cost, etc). I am aware that if I do not attend one of the BRN approved...
