1. Unsolicited Advice From A Preceptor

   annie_m replied to Izzy11's topic in NP Students

   I would have given student three a break. As a current student I would rather make up a day of clinical because I needed to pass a course and had to have study time then to have spent a semester wasting a preceptors time because I did poorly on a te...

2. PMHNP

   annie_m replied to nursefizer10's topic in Texas (UTA)

   I was in the online program and switched. I think that the material is covered more adequately in class and there is less work. Not to say that you learn less but for example in online assessment you take a lot of hours to make and upload videos. ...

3. Clinical commute

   annie_m replied to turnforthenurse's topic in NP Students

   To me its not unreasonable. You could get a name your price hotel and do 2 clinics days per week, staying over night there. I live in Wichita falls and drive to Arlington which is 2 to 2.5 hours just for class.

5. UTA FNP program online

   annie_m replied to RoshawndaB's topic in Texas (UTA)

   I would recommend the on campus program just not the online portion. The on campus program is really good. I feel like I have learned so much more this semester going to class.

6. UTA FNP program online

   annie_m replied to RoshawndaB's topic in Texas (UTA)

   After having a hard time trying to pass assessment I switched to the on campus option. When I did this and had to retake the same class due to dropping it the first time I did notice that tuition for that class was $1000 more. It was a 4 hour class...

8. UTA FNP program online

   annie_m replied to RoshawndaB's topic in Texas (UTA)

   You can either do two classes or one at a time. I am only doing one at a time as I work full time and have 3 kids. The classes continue to be either 5 or 10 week courses. They do not cut you any slack on the amount of information that you must kno...

9. online NP schools..

   annie_m replied to SwoRN's topic in NP Students

   I know that the on campus family and psych program require multiple visits per class. I have a friend in the on campus psych program and she is there at least every other week. At this time they only have the family as an online program.

    I am currently in the online FNP program at UTA and will only have one clinical check off day in the entire program.

11. UTA FNP program online

    annie_m replied to RoshawndaB's topic in Texas (UTA)

    I obtained my BSN with UTA as well and this program is much more time intensive. A couple of the classes you could take together but I would definately not take patho with anything else. If you want to have an idea of what some of the class load lo...

    annie_m replied to nursekimmie72's topic in Texas (UTA)

    I thought that pharm was much easier and my grade reflected it by about 10 points. But I will say that the book was a lot better. Are you in assessment next Texasrn53?

    annie_m replied to nursekimmie72's topic in Texas (UTA)

    Oh you will also need a web camera and a desj top tripod to take your test with. They recommend the logitech c920. It has to be a 1080p camera but not the logitech one.

14. UTA FNP-Advanced Patho

    annie_m replied to nursekimmie72's topic in Texas (UTA)

    I thought the class was horrible. While I know that the content is hard, as it should be, I felt that he did little to no guidance. I asked for help and got told "its graduate school, its supposed to be hard." I will say that he curves the test an...
