    DNPBrookie replied to nurse54321's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hi All! I passed the AANP FNP exam yesterday. I found it very useful to read all of the tips and experiences that others have shared regarding their exam prep so I wanted to contribute while it is...

  4. Who is writing the job postings??

    DNPBrookie posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    I just need to vent! I am graduating in May and therefore have started my quest for that unicorn of the nursing world: The New Grad Job. In my search I am using engines such as Indeed, Monster, etc....

    DNPBrookie replied to KBnurse2B's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Also, this is just a side note, but once you apply, answer every phone call! I know of at least two people from my program who missed the call from the recruiter and by the time they returned it I...

  6. ASU Post-bacc program

    DNPBrookie replied to mommyoftwinks's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hey all, I just wanted to say that they've been talking about this program since before I started at ASU! Not that it won't happen, but I would just get in where you can. I had a previous degree in...

    DNPBrookie replied to KBnurse2B's topic in First Year After Licensure

    DNPBrookie replied to KBnurse2B's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Hi all, I wanted to check in regarding my interview. The interviewers were such nice ladies it was difficult to tell how I did! I think I could have said anything and they would have still been...

  9. Phoenix Children's Hospital New Grad Program (GAPP) Summer 2011

    DNPBrookie replied to KBnurse2B's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I wasn't offered an interview for med/surg but I believe I specified ICU and ED when I applied if I remember correctly so that may have been why. I honestly answered the call thinking it was someone...

    DNPBrookie replied to KBnurse2B's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Perfect I will do that! Thanks so much! And then I guess I will be in the waiting game with everyone else. Hopefully this is the last round and they don't keep us suffering too

  11. Phoenix Children's Hospital New Grad Program (GAPP) Summer 2011

    DNPBrookie replied to KBnurse2B's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Hello all! I am a new grad. Was just offered an interview for the ICU/ED position on Friday. So now I am super nervous because I have never interviewed in this field before. Any advice? I'm just...

  12. 18 July 2010 ODS? (Navy)

    DNPBrookie replied to meg314's topic in Government, Military

    So that confirms my feeling that there should be something I can do to start the process prior to actually graduating. Hmmm. I guess I'll wait until the new fiscal year and but him again. Maybe then...

  13. 18 July 2010 ODS? (Navy)

    DNPBrookie replied to meg314's topic in Government, Military

    Can I just ask if you all entered via direct accession or the NCP? I'm going to graduate May 2011 and I'm very interested in the Navy. Because I want to do direct accession rather than NCP my...

  14. ASU's BSN program Versus MCC @ Boswell and then RN-BSN

    DNPBrookie replied to lervolc's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Well I am in my first semester of the ASU program. It is definitely intense, there is no sugercoating that. I am also a Mom but my son is older so less demanding on my time than small children....

  15. Any ASU Fall '09 Hopefulls out there?

    DNPBrookie replied to determined 2succeed's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Congrats to you! I was considering the LPN route if I didn't get in this time so I agree that any program is great right now. The plus of the associates program is that you'll probably be able to get...

  16. Any ASU Fall '09 Hopefulls out there?

    DNPBrookie replied to determined 2succeed's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm in! I got the letter today. I'm so relieved. Now I just have to figure out how to support myself through the program LOL. The cut off was 5.593 this time. Hope to see you guys at the welcome...

  17. Any ASU Fall '09 Hopefulls out there?

    DNPBrookie replied to determined 2succeed's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I think mine is a flat 5.7 if I remember correctly so I'm right behind you. If that doesn't get me in I think I'm going to become a physical therapist. :) Let me know when you get your letter either...

  18. Part-time CNA job??

    DNPBrookie replied to jke530's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I've only done the first weekend. A lot of the information you will have seen doing your pre-reqs but there is some new info and the skills can be fun. We learned how to take blood pressures on Sunday...

  19. Part-time CNA job??

    DNPBrookie replied to jke530's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I saw your post and laughed because what you want to do is exactly my gameplan. I'm actually attending the weekend class at RSAA right now. I'm waiting to find out if I've made the cut for the fall...

  20. Any ASU Fall '09 Hopefulls out there?

    DNPBrookie replied to determined 2succeed's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I am applying again for fall as well. I was able to replace my B in Microbiology with my A in Pathophysiology this time so I will have a 4.0. I hope that is enough of a difference because I didn't do...

  21. ASU/Arizona BSN year-round programs

    DNPBrookie replied to airforceguy's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Have you looked into GCU at all? They have a fast track that is 20 months. I don't know if that is year round but it seems like it would be. They are expensive but I think they give a military...

  22. ASU spring '09 start bsn program

    DNPBrookie replied to jeym7's topic in Arizona Nursing

    So I found out yesterday that I am alternate #19 out of 20. So, it's not looking good for me to get in even as an alternate. The bad part is that they want the alternates to go to the welcome meeting...

    Hey guys, I just got my alternate letter as well. My score was

  24. ASU spring '09 start bsn program

    DNPBrookie replied to jeym7's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I haven't applied for any but I need to. I looked at them a little and quickly became discouraged so I was hoping to meet with someone in financial aid once I'm advanced. It seems pointless until I...

    DNPBrookie replied to xpinchx's topic in General Nursing

    Hi there, I am also a 2nd degree student, hoping to begin a 16 month BSN program in January. However my situation is a little different in that I am already working and a breadwinner, just decided...
