  1. CONGRATULATIONS!!! I too, got my verification today. So, yes, about 3 weeks from the receipt of my information to the state also. I don't know if you know, but you can apply for your NPI online also....
  2. All my friends are saying approx. 3 weeks. I am waiting on mine too lol. The board will tell you 3-6 weeks. Good luck. Make sure you paid the fee to renew your license also, if it is up this year....
  3. AANP Certification Exam

    In cases such as this, there really isn't anything that one can say that makes it better. What I can say, from experience, is that this, in no way, should mark you or make you feel less than you are....
  4. What can I do now?

    I would take the experience you gleaned as an RN and capitalize on that, and use that to get the next job. If you like the area of focus you used to work, that is. You said you went to derm for...
  5. FNP CERT EXAM

    If my reading comprehension is intact, it states on the web site/internet that people are given different versions of the exam. It is some kind of Angkoff method or something like, which is why the...
  6. FNP CERT EXAM

    Without discussing details of the test, yes, my content was on these topics. I also took the exam on this day. Do not feel bad about your results, this test could of easily been failed. I was not...
  7. FNP CERT EXAM

    I took the AANP exam about a week ago. At least 4 of the people I went to school with have taken it in the last 2 weeks and found it very doable. Some of my peers, thought it was easy, and one of them...
  8. Help me! Desperate for this job!

    Honestly, if I am interpreting what you are saying rightly, it sounds as if your state's guidelines are vague. Without knowing what they are for sure, it is hard to answer your questions. If they...
  9. Don't feel bad or question yourself so thoroughly. This is actually a good thing, and shows that you have sense. Once someone is really exposed to this kind of volume and the amount of information...
  10. I also hear the other tracks are quite different. I have someone in my graduating class that attended the Mental Health program, and she loved it. Very small class, she said they nurtured them. I...
  11. I just graduated from USA's Online FNP program... Officially, I graduate December 8, 2009, but I am done never-the-less. The program is continuously evolving. It has changed since I have been in it,...
  12. My understanding of the rules as they apply and with the information you have given me, is probably no. You would have to write your advisors and ask. The only time you can use a preceptor...
  13. University of South Alabama online program

    first, are you on-campus or distance (all online)? usa is a distance learning program, but there is some mandatory attendance components to it and it can change from semester to semester. my...
  14. University of South Alabama online program

    If one was to be asked about ANY program they were in, they would say, if they were honest, they both loved or hated some aspect of it... Even if those are strong terms, they would be generally...
  15. I am preparing to graduate from USA this semester. I can tell you that the program is changing due to the expectation of implementation of the DNP, which is why the clinical hours where reduced for...

    USA does require you to make an on campus visit the first semester of clinical instruction (this is in the second year) that generally last 3-4 days. They have stated they may increase this, and can...

  18. The future of NP (practice / privileges) ??

    I agree wholeheartedly...
  19. I live in Florida. I do not find what has been posted here at all by the original poster. The nurse practice act here does not support the statements your faculty has given you... Read it and...
  20. Mayhap it is me, but this thread seems like it got a little off topic... Derailed ftw
  21. How many ER APNs do we have????

    In Florida, for that setting, I am getting quotes of 45-50 dollars an hour right out of school. I would think this could be a little higher with experience. In fact, I know a ARNP, that is making...
  22. University of Alabama FNP online

    Most Private schools generally have more resources, smaller class sizes, better equipment. Doesn't have to be a hard and fast rule, but one often sees it. Where there are more dollars generated by...
  23. I had never heard that,,,though it may be true of some programs I guess. I would doubt it though. I would call the school or program and ask. I pretty much think the standard is that you do paps in...
  24. University of Alabama FNP online

    anytime. it is a tough program, but i would say it a good one. it is a state school. so one does not get some of the perks one would get at a private school, but then one does not pay the tuition...
