Hi Guide, Thank you for the info!!! I shall look into it as well!

Thank you very much for your response Adenium! I shall look more into it.

Hello everyone! I live in southern California and I am a nursing student pursuing my BSN at the moment. I would like to further my career by becoming a nurse practitioner. However, I will need some help with how to be on the right path as far as education is concerned. I am aware that in order to become a nurse practitioner, I will need my MSN and take the corresponding exam to be certified. Now, If I want to become a family nurse practitioner, will I need additional education for that and a separate exam to be certified? Thank you all very much for taking the time to read and reply!

Thank you all so much for your info and insights!!!!! I'll keep you all updated

Hi dear respectable nurses and advance practice nurses， I am a nursing student and in the middle of my two year program at the moment. I have big dreams in which one of them is to become an APN sometimes in the future. I am confused as to the different types of ANP that are out there. I have a couple of questions and I appreciate your answers and any additional information you may provide. The questions are: 1. Could anyone tell me the differences between them? 2. Which one is more marketable now and easier to get hired? 3. I live in southern california, does anyone know if NP can practice individually? 4. Do NPs need to buy liability practice insurance? 5. I appreciate any information aside from the ones I listed. Thank you in advance!!!

Hi Nadi! I am actually going to attend WCU in Ontario this end of August! I am very excited and scared at the same time. How do you like the school so far? I welcome any advice and suggestions. -F

Hi everyone! I am going to take my Hesi entrance exam at the Ontario location tomorrow. After reading what some of you have posted up as to what are on the test, I feel much more confident about it. I am currently enrolled in a junior college, and have only taken BIO for the science pre-reqs. English, Soc, and others have been completed as well. Now, I am not sure what is the next step for me after I pass the Hesi exam. When should I transfer my units, or talk to a Financial Advisor? Please give me advice and tips which I really appreciate! -Frannie

Hi dear, It is completely normal to feel nervous before starting on something new. You will get used to it, people have different ways of coping with changes. You will be just fine. One of my friends started working as a RN and she was very nervous and anxious about her first job offer as well. You will be fine, trust me!

Hi everyone! First of all I want to say Congrats to luvbug!!! I am going to get a BSN soon, and I am very interested in joining the AirForce. what is the difference between joining AF as an officer, as a nurse, and as an enlisted? Thank you all very much!!!

Hi Everyone! I am in need for suggestions on whether I should attend a private nursing school or get on a wait list at a community college. I live in Los Angeles County, and the normal wait list at most community colleges here is from a year to 3 years. I don't want to waste any more time and would love to finish school ASAP, I would really appreciate it if any of you know of a good, and more economical private nursing schools in LA county. Thank you all very much! -caliF
