So, I have been an NP for almost 4 years. I mostly work in acute care and do some adjust teaching work as well. I think I am having a mid-career crisis. Basically I am not really fulfilled with the NP...
With a new job in my future and full time now being 4-10 hour days, I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to use the 5th day of the week to increase any income. I'm currently toying with the...
I would check out Excelsior for thier exam or another online school. Many community colleges have this course online and it may not be to late to get into the spring semester. The good thing about the...
I am currently a student in a NP program. I graduated from Excelsior with a ADN in '07 and did my BSN at a state school. I took my my A&P at a brick and mortar school, but did do my micro through...
I came about this issue as well. I was told by a couple of schools I looked into that I could have a clinical placement in VT, MA, or CT if I could find a preceptor. In my eyes, that is not worth it....

In order for me to start my clinical (advanced assessment course), I need to pass a clinical assessment validation exam. I wondering if all programs have this requirement and what it actually entails....
Full time, yes. In addition, I would work OT to cover the cost of the next exam. This saved me from having to pay out-of pocket for the program. I saved my tuition reimbursement money to cover the...
I started in January and finished in September, passing my boards by the end of September actually. It can be done. I had all my gen eds done with the exception of micro, which I took the EC exam for....
I was in the same boat as you when I was applying to my ANP program. What I did was write what I thought would be a good statement. When I was finished, I asked the writing tutor for my BSN program to...
I've also looked into this a bit. I was also looking at Jefferson's online FNP program down in Philly. The only issue with that was there can be no clinical in NY. So I would have to go to either MA...
