  1. Nurse Practioner Diagnostic Ability

    guest_57352 replied to guest_57352's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    What the hell?? When did I say becoming a nurse was the low road? My statement was: Shadowing MDs, I found that they spent too little time with patients and so I'd rather be a NP. Is it wrong of me to...

    one.two.three - were you on the waitlist? Congrats on getting off! And as for the interview, I think they are calling people as they go through. The lady I spoke to said interviews won't be finished...

  4. To Current NPs and Students - Diagnostic Ability?

    guest_57352 replied to guest_57352's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Thanks for your response. So what you're saying is, generally, it seems NPs have about the same diagnostic ability has an MD. If the NP is stumped, the doctor is too, so their levels of education in...

  5. Nurse Practioner Diagnostic Ability

    guest_57352 replied to guest_57352's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Thanks for your answer, but the two things I bolded in your post make no sense to me. First, did you even read my question? It says do NPs in THE SAME FIELD as an MD necessarily have the same...

  6. To Current NPs and Students - Diagnostic Ability?

    guest_57352 replied to guest_57352's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Ok, good to know. I have this thread going on in another room and had to simplify my question for better answers. So to all current NPs: How often does the average NP feel "stumped" when presented...

  7. Nurse Practioner Diagnostic Ability

    guest_57352 replied to guest_57352's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Agreed, but I was hoping for more concrete answers. I.e. - "I can diagnose 95% of what comes in. If someone comes in with a strong headache and I find a spot on a CAT scan, I definitely don't feel...

    guest_57352 replied to guest_57352's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    lol, I don't have a temper at all. The inability to offer inflection and tone on a forum leads to misunderstandings such as the one you just experienced. I posted in General because I posted the same...

  9. Nurse Practioner Diagnostic Ability

    guest_57352 replied to guest_57352's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I've researched all about NPs, PAs, and MDs. I don't think an NP is like an MD. I'm asking for current NPs or NP students to simply give me an idea of how far in depth they believe their diagnostic...

    10 comments and you're the only one to respond to me! Thank you! Anyway - I am not trying to attack the nursing profession in any way, after all I'm trying to join it. Please understand that I am...

    Thanks! That's good to know, klbinuag. irishrnbsn, I totally agree with you, and I'm more interested in nursing at this point, but I still just want to know the level of diagnostic abilities. I think...

  12. Should I Worry About Future of CRNAs?

    guest_57352 replied to guest_57352's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    What the hell kind of comment is that? Don't try to act like you can judge me. While I know it's hard to believe, not every human being is inherently selfish and stingy, as you seem to think. If...

    Hi there! Congrats on Columbia - how much is it? Just FYI, U of R is around $52,000 for tuition alone for the full year, so it's not exactly "cheap" either. As for grades, I don't think any specific...

    I have a question - and this is to everyone else who is in the program or planning on going into it. How do you pay for it? A ton of loans? Do we get ANY financial aid? Or do we take out 50K in
