   Hi, I wasn't aware of D/I ratio when I applied. Mine is less than 100%, so am very doubtful I would get anything. Congrats to those of you who have been awarded!

   I would like to know too if any NPs have heard anything . I haven't heard anything except online my application still shows "under review". I called but recording says they don't know more than what online says, so I didn't talk with anyone. I don...

6. Another salary question

   lynn5707 replied to Calibean's topic in NP

   I did negotiate but you are right about that, I am not good at it. Also, my priority was working Mon-thurs to spend time with my retired husband, etc.

7. Another salary question

   lynn5707 replied to Calibean's topic in NP

   I would have loved to have been offered higher $. Basically, the new NP's in our area (midwest) are getting $75-85 year in office/outpatient settings. About $90 in hospital settings.

13. Adult-Gero exam and AANP

    lynn5707 replied to kevang22's topic in NP

    Hi, Thanks for the information. When you say that Leik and Barkley did not cover all the material, did you feel you needed more review, or were they enough? Sounds like you did great! I was just planning on using Barkley's stuff, along with the Fit...
