1. Graduate Programs MGHIHP, BC, NE

   26faster replied to tussah10's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

   I attend the IHP. I came into the direct-entry program and am in my last semester. Overall, I feel like I've gotten a good education. However, I've had my frustrations. The BS program of the portion...

2. I do not care anymore

   26faster replied to JB2007's topic in General Nursing

   I'm just getting into nursing after being a dietitian for 9 years. I know that feeling of frustration and burn out with patients not listening. The diabetic patient who has ulcers and yells at me...

   Does MGH allow deferrals? I'm back to freaking out about the $$$! That may be a good option for me as well.

   26faster replied to drfitness's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   I honestly wouldn't think where you get your degree is going to matter than much. It's not like we are business people deciding whether to get an MBA at Harvard or U Mass. With some fields/careers...

   26faster replied to drfitness's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   I'm going to go. Can't imagine doing what I'm doing now for another 30

   26faster replied to drfitness's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   I'm wondering if it's an age thing. I've noticed there are a number of students in their early to mid 20s. Not that any of us are even close to old but as you get older and have more life experiences...

7. 2009 Direct Entry MSN at MGHIHP

   26faster replied to Samm13's topic in Post Graduate Students

   Hi! I took the first test and the first 6 quizzes. He might have corrected the errors because they seemed to fit with the material in the book. I haven't actually even viewed the tutor so maybe...

8. 2009 Direct Entry MSN at MGHIHP

   26faster replied to Samm13's topic in Post Graduate Students

   Just as an fyi for the Science Summer if anyone happens to be in the same boat I was in. Chemistry was all I had left to take this Summer and I'm currently not living in Boston. I couldn't find any...

9. 2009 Direct Entry MSN at MGHIHP

   26faster replied to Samm13's topic in Post Graduate Students

   I'm freaking out a little over the money too now that MGH is starting to feel more like a reality. It's a lot of money! It's hard to justify. I'm almost 33, so be done at 36 and then own $150,000 plus...

    26faster replied to drfitness's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Great question! I'm in the same boat as you. Got into MGH and very excited about it. I'm working now as a dietitian in California and making a good income ~$70,000-75,000 per year. I haven't really...

11. Need interview help!!! Northeastern Direct Entry

    26faster replied to Nahbois's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I've heard the trend is going against requiring those types of standardized tests because they don't really reflect a person's ability to do well in school at the graduate level or in a career. A lack...

12. Need interview help!!! Northeastern Direct Entry

    26faster replied to Nahbois's topic in First Year After Licensure

    That's ridiculous! So not worth your effort to re-apply and wait another year to get in! :) The whole NEU thing is crazy to me. Rolling admissions, a variable number of spots, lack of communication, 4...

13. Need interview help!!! Northeastern Direct Entry

    26faster replied to Nahbois's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I've yet to hear anything from NEU either. I finally called yesterday and left a message, nothing yet. I had sent an e-mail about a month ago but didn't get a response to that. Interesting..... Do you...

    26faster replied to Nahbois's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Congrats on Regis! That's a great school. Things have a way of working out as they are suppose to. I totally agree with you about NEU's

15. Need interview help!!! Northeastern Direct Entry

    26faster replied to Nahbois's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Seems like it'd be pretty easy to just acknowledge emails or send out a group response if they are getting many of the same questions from everyone, which I assume they are. I felt like I put in a lot...
