  2. What allows one more independence? NP or CNS?

    allsmiles, It sounds like you are best off to go the NP route. That will give you the most independence. Some places will allow CNS's to do more in an inpatient setting, but to give you the...

  5. NP Salary vs. RN salary

  6. AANP exam--prep for adult NP?

    Hey Dixiecup, So sorry to hear all you have been through especially with that oral exam. I can't imagine how horrible that must have been for you. Out of curiosity where did you get your FNP training?...
  7. Help did not pass the ANCC

    Yes, three months was definitely overkill but part of the problem was that I didn't know when I would actually be taking the test. I started studying back in september but I thought I would be taking...
  8. Anyone NOT have enough exp before NP school?

    So in going back to the original posting of this thread...I recently landed an NP job with almost four years of RN experience. Some people might say that's not enough, but for me, I think it's been...
  9. AANP exam--prep for adult NP?

    I took the ANCC ANP exam 5 days ago and passed it. I guess right now the best piece of advice I could give is try not to get all worked up over the test. I ended up doing that and when I sat down to...
  10. First NP job, what do you think?

    Thanks everybody! Jerryl, yes I had experience as an RN in the area of cardiology and CV surgery. I'm really glad I went the NP route. I have a friend who is CRNA school and she likes it too, but I...
  11. First NP job, what do you think?

    So, I finally landed my first NP job. It's with a cardiology group affiliated with a major medical center/teaching hospital. Full benefits. Work schedule is 5 days per week, M-F, 8-5. No weekends, no...
  12. First NP job, what do you think?

    The geographical location is a suburban area, about 20 minutes from a huge city. It's perfect for me because it's not too far from where I will. All the amenities are close by. I didn't really need...
  13. Waiting for NP job, working as RN

    I also completed a direct entry masters program and received my MSN back in 2006. Exactly six months after graduation, I started an ANP program while I worked as an RN. I just finished the ANP program...
  14. AANP exam--prep for adult NP?

    When I first looked at the Fitz book and did some of those questions, I was also averaging probably about 75%. I just took the ANCC ANP exam several days ago and passed it so that test I know is...

  16. Help did not pass the ANCC

    NP2b, if you are averaging 90% on the practice exams, then you are doing very well! I know how it feels to sit and wait to take this test. It's hard not to think about it, but sometimes you just have...
  17. Help did not pass the ANCC

    I wouldn't get discouraged. I'm not sure it's a matter of how long you are studying per day, but more to do with the content of the material you are studying. Now, I took the ANP exam, not the PNP...

  19. Help did not pass the ANCC

    That's interesting Bchapp. With questions on billing and research and whatever else we are asked (besides clinical questions), it makes one wonder, how is one supposed to really prepare for this exam?...

    I will be taking the ANCC ANP exam in just two short days!! And I am really nervous. Anybody have any words of wisdom. I've studied for the past three months and now I am just reviewing some possible...
  21. Help did not pass the ANCC

    Hi fight fatigue, I have a question. When you took the ANCC exam, were you able to go back and check your answers after you were done or was there a way to go back to the previous question? Thanks!...
  22. 75 ?'s today. how many pass? & priority ?'s=difficult?

    Thanks. I agree. Waiting is the worst
  25. Nclex Aug. 22nd @ 0900

    Just pray before the exam and remain calm through the test. If you are unsure of an answer, cry out to God. I just took the test today and I have to say, it was brutal, but I know God got me through...
