NurseBlaq Jul 30, 2020 No. Whatever you do, do NOT choose a 'for profit' school. Make sure the school is accredited, and try to find a program that will find for you, or at least assist with, preceptors for clinical rotations. 5 Likes

If you didn’t have anything beneficial to say you could have just not commented. Or better yet you could have suggested a program instead of being so demeaning. 2 Likes

They were making their observations on the sorry state of NP education these days. And name-calling is never a good idea. Just because it is not what you wanted to hear does not invalidate the advice. 4 Likes
