Any MSN NP program that doesn't require 3P exam?

Yes, I'm a statistic. Presently enrolled in Post University and did not pass the 3p exam twice. While I won't indicate how badly I think the program is run, it was entirely on me to pass the 3P which I understand.

I made a 60 on both attempts and would like to enroll in a program where this isn't a requirement.

Does any such program exist?

Pathophysiology, pharmacology, and physical assessment.

ETA: @stevenking, I suspect that most, if not all, NP programs are going to require that you at least test out; if not complete the courses.

Best wishes.

Hi Chare,

Yes, I wouldn't expect otherwise. My question, however, asks for examples of schools that do not require a standardized exam for these three disciplines. I have successfully passed advanced pathophysiology, advanced pharmacology, and advanced physical assessment.

NRSKarenRN,

Post University requires one to sit for a national exam, entitled "the 3P exam" administered by APEA once you successfully complete advanced pathophysiology, advanced pharmacology, and advanced physical assessment.

I am looking for schools that do not have this national exam requirement.

Hi there does anyone know of a nurse practitioner school exists that does not require a 3P exam? I also failed my 3P exam
