   I agree no standardization weakens our profession. We also need our own governing boards and ethical principles as both MDs and PAs do, we discussed this very topic in my health care policy course. We have NPs working outside of their scope and it we...

   Again not sure what type of program your friends went through, but mine was quite different. Stats was different than undergrad stats ??‍♀️ However, I also went to clinical with NPs whose school didn't require proctored exams and didn't know the sign...

   You don't understand why stats is part of grad school? Graduate level stats is required even for the PhD level applications I am currently completing. Research based stats is definitely not the same as under grad stats. I only wrote 3 papers my entir...

   Sadly some people are just not meant for acute care nursing. Let's be honest the NCLEX wasn't difficult and very basic meaning if you skimmed past in nursing school you could pass it. I felt the same with both my AANP and ANCC, but again I chose rigo...

   Well let it be new because my high school chem was not counted towards my nursing degree lol The CSU and UC required at least a semester of organic and a semester or inorganic. I also was required a full pharm class as an admission requirement to my ...

   All of the BSN programs I looked at required Ochem, but I'm in CA. I think the comment was in regards to not being taught how molecules work. I was taught that in chem and micro bio ??‍♀️ Every program is very different I've found since I started pre...

   Yikes didn't even know how molecules interacted? Sadly nursing schools vary widely. And you would be surprised at how many can't write an APA paper even with a manual ??‍♀️ And those sound like low level of research articles and less of a problem wit...

   Yup, I call my BSN my *** in nursing degree because I breezed through it due to already having a solid foundation in research, theory, methodology and proper APA formatting. I seriously feel my ADN program laid the framework for my current studies an...

    Couldn't agree more! Since graduating I have precepted countless students and oriented many new grads. The type of instructor or professor a student had was more important than ADN versus BSN in regards to preparedness.

    I did not find it hard and didn't need to spend countless hours studying, but I think that was due to knowing my learning style and adjusting. I also jumped right into everything and asked questions as well as in was a fly on the wall during grand ro...

    Hello! If you are worried about your GPA just write a stellar essay and have phenomenal letters of recommendation. Those outweigh the GPA. I had one from the medical director of my unit, my unit director who has her MSN, and another program director ...

    I'm currently set to start my 3rd semester in their AGNP program. So, the first year all of the specialties are in courses together while you take the 3Ps. This program is online, but it is rigorous. Be prepared, but it is doable. Biostatistics was a...

    I paid nursingCas their $65 and then after my information was verified I received an email asking me to create a UC profile, and then I had to pay another $65. Now I'm just waiting to hear back, the representative said it could be 6 weeks...
