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. Good luck! Stef:yeah:

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. They will not even look at your app until you do.

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. It is hard not to have such feelings because of ...

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 this job, and honestly as someone who does human reso...

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 scores are weighted. There are 150 questions, 15 o...

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 sure I passed it, in fact, I did not believe it... ...

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 thought it was challenging. For me, I thought th...

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 are indeed vague, then interpretation is up to the i...

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 required to be a mid-level provider, it is daunting...

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 also heard the Women's Health Classes were the same...

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, and is reportedly changing every time we get an a...

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 associated with your job is if it something like you are i...

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 requirement was to go at the end of the first semester for ...

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 applicable. There will always be a red herring, someone,...

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 upcoming students. I would state to your questions a...

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 alter this requirement at any time and may do so. D...

One must submit a CV and a signed two page contract, unless it is a mini observation which is a one page contract for submission to your assigned clinical instructor for review and then it is sent to the college for acceptance. Usually you discuss th...

I agree wholeheartedly... Stef

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 interpret it yourself and see if you agree... I am in sc...

Mayhap it is me, but this thread seems like it got a little off topic... Derailed ftw lol.

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 significantly more than that with 10 years experien...

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 tuition, it is not rocket science to see that it ma...

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 your clinical portion of the program on people who...

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 of a private school either.

I attend USA. The tests are pretty much as the poster described. How else may I help you?
