   Thanks. This is a start. I was hoping to hear from someone and their experience based on practice exams and the like. Once your transcripts show your degree you can submit them electronically to...

2. UCSF vs UW

   MursingMedic replied to jaynakim34's topic in Post Graduate Students

   Not an FNP, but just graduated UW's AGNP AC track. FWIW, there's a big BIG focus on underserved populations, health disparities and health equity in the first year of the program. The SON in...

3. Nurse Practitioner Residencies

   MursingMedic replied to JuiceBoxHero's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   This sounds very much like the UCSD neurovascular program. I really wanted to apply but can't uproot my family or leave them for a year while being the sole provider. My next job is going to try to...

4. AACN ACNPC-AG boards

   MursingMedic replied to jnewman435's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

   Bumping this. I'm scheduled to take the exam in a month and am wondering what the passing percentage is. I know it's a dynamic scoring system, but at the same time, it would be nice to know if I'm...

5. How can I help educate floor nurses as a Hospitalist NP?

   MursingMedic replied to Bumashes's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   In my nursing school clinicals there was an NP who worked for CTS that rounded on the step down units. She had 30 minutes scheduled each day to do a brief informal brown bag with a unit of her...

6. Invasive procedures?

   MursingMedic replied to francoml's topic in Advanced Practice

   You guys got me feeling good about my chosen path! I'm 4/10 quarters into my AGNPAC DNP. As a former navy corpsman, paramedic and critical care ER nurse, you're just reaffirming my decision to go into...

7. What/why do they say our classes are fluff?

   MursingMedic replied to AAC.271's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

   I have some theories... The DNP doesn't have the same rigor as the PhD. This is a selling point for some by being able to market a doctorate without typically requiring a thesis or the detailed...

8. On the chopping block? Need some encouragement

   MursingMedic replied to SnowShoeRN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   Would it be too out of place to speak with leadership, express what you're currently sensing in the work environment (without be accusatory) and asking for time to find new employment before any...

9. University of Washington DNP Program

   MursingMedic replied to xnv30rn's topic in Post Graduate Students

   Don't be discouraged. GO TO THE INFORMATION SESSIONS! I cannot stress this enough. Everything you need to know to have a competitive application comes directly from the sessions. I would say that a...

10. What/why do they say our classes are fluff?

    MursingMedic replied to AAC.271's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I can appreciate your enthusiasm and enjoyment of pursuing higher education. I, however, am in a DNP program and agree with others that much of it is "fluff." I'm not being taught to examine...

12. All the degrees, no job

    MursingMedic replied to DNPFNP15's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    You guys got me stressing now. I start my DNP in the fall... It's a core 1 year didactic front loaded for all tracks which then split off into individual clinical tracks for year 2. They make you go...

13. All the degrees, no job

    MursingMedic replied to DNPFNP15's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I've worked with a couple people who thought that by attaining every degree and certification under the sun would therefore qualify them by default to a ton of quick career ladder jumps. Alphabet soup...
