Check out job as research nurse- pay is not very high but it is very interesting

To spend more time with family make sure to sign up for picmonic (it is about $4 a month but it is HUGE time saver). picmonic will give you exactly what you need to know for your exam

You remind me myself when I was trying to decide what school to attend, so I will share some questions, which you can research and make a decision. 1) Check out school student's diversity 2) Check out teachers/professors diversity 3) Check out the professor's educational background. Did they attend state schools or for-profit schools? 4) What is NCLEX passing score? The goal is 100% for 3 years or 95 % for 5 years. 5) Does the school require to pass ATI predictability exam in order to pass the class? (Only best school do NOT require their student to pass ATI predictability exam in order to pass the class, because they provided good quality education ). 6) How many people begin and complete the program? 7) Do they have any problems finding clinical instructors? do they offer diversity in clinical settings? Would you have to complete hours in a nursing home? In my opinion, you do not learn much at the nursing home (look up what other people think ). 8 Look up if university/college has an affiliation with the hospital. 9) Look up what reputation a college has in the community. Would you be able to get a job fresh out of school without an internship? Ideally, you should get a job offer after your last exam in nursing school. Please follow up in 5 - 10 years and share your story

I graduated from UNC in North Carolina states. I applied to a few school and this time around I was checking to see how many students graduating and if school has diversity in their students. Some times it is not enough to ace your exams and to be smart.

Yen Ami, Before you choose to attend this program check out how many people do not make it to the end of the program. I did not make it, so I attended a different school and graduate with honors. Years later I graduated family nurse practitioner program with a 3.92 GPA. To this day I remember how some professors encouraged me to change careers because "I am not fit to be a nurse". Thank God I was old enough, so I was able to disregard horrible recommendations. Good luck

You do NOT shadow, you will be expected to provider services, suggest treatment and chart. Then you will report to your preceptor and he or she will agree or disagree with you . Most likely you would be in outpatient clinic in NP role

1)Read Leik at least 2 time or more until you UNDERSTAND materials. 2) listen to cohen review 3) get FNP mastery qbank 4) when you feel you are ready purchase sarah michelle qbank

Yes, everyone deserve a 2nd chance.

I choose to attend Husson, so I could save some money. I should of go to Allen college in Waterloo, Iowa. Allen college is more expensive, but their clinical coordinator help you to find clinicals and 90% of the students get job offer to work at the community.

I believe the cost of the FNP program is $29,00. You would be required to complete 600 clinical hours. Start looking as soon as you can this way it would be so much cheaper. I study 2 to 3 days a week plus each day I complete 1- 2 assignments. I also work 3 nights a week, so it is hard but I am making it work. I review at least 4,000 practice questions (from the test bank), none of them on the exam but it helps me to understand the materials and I do okay on y exam. I score on my exam 80 to 90. In each class, you would be given an exam study guide just study it and you would be just fine. Be aware that the family care I and II test study guide is only 80 % accurate, so spend extra time to prep for this exam. It is important to mention that all-important communication is done at the last minute. For example, we were notified 3 days before the due date that we need to purchase badges and they gave us 2 weeks to change Summer vacation time. During clinical orientation, you would have 24 to 48 hours to complete required assignments, and each new module opens each day, so I was forced to complete an assignment after working 12 hours shift. It was a crazy clinical orientation.

You have flexibility in number of classes you would like to take each semester, so you cab be done with school in 24 months. If you choose to take just 1 to 2 classes per semester it would take you 30 months. In some classess lectures has been recorded LONG LONG LONG time ago, and they just used over and over again each semester. Quality of some audio is low, so each semester students asking to re-record this audio's ? You would be expected to reach 100 pages each week, Youtube is helping a lot. I believe that this program mostly self taught, but on quized and exams information what you need to know is reinforced. Exam outline is provided but it is not very helpful because they just list every topic we study in the class. Yes, they do not care about us like professors in BSN nursing school, but I feel like their case studies and quizles help you to learn what you must for the board exam. I use picmonic, and Youtube a lot. The hardest part of the school is clinicals.

Zoom meeting is offered just for review for the exam. Otherwise a lot of weekly discussions.

Some students working 5 days a week, so they hate taking time off just to take exams, because most of the time exam scheduled on Thursday or Friday at 10 am or 1 pm.

Classes are not hard if you plan out your time and do something every day. All classes are fully online. On the 1st day of the class, you would be given scheduled exam days and if you work m-f 8 to 5 you would be expected to take days off just for the exams. All exams are monitored through zoom, so you would have to set up 2 devices 1 for the professor to monitor you and another to take the exam. in every class, you would have a discussion board. In some classes, you would have to do special projects like scientific posters and in other classes, you would have a quiz each week plus an exam every 4 or 8 weeks. In some classes, there are 2 or 4 exams worth 50% of your final grade. Clinical OUTPATIENT only. You would NOT be allowed to do inpatient clinics. You are responsible for finding clinical yourself. NPhub will charge you a $12+ service fee. There are 600 clinical hours. Professors are really good at connecting with their students. Students like the program. The hardest part of the program is finding clinical. You would have to reach out to 40+ places to find clinical. Exams are proctored and quizess are not proctored.

You will and should be help accountable if you did not give report to other nurse.
