    *RN123ABC* replied to NPs4health's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    ugh, stop GL, you are scaring me. Seriously, these patients are the main reason I want out of the hospital. I am sure they will always be around, but at least in my area, the NPs here can...

    You can look at the Health and Human services website to see if there is an area identified as high needs that you might be willing to relocate to in exchange for federal dollars toward your...

  5. Fear of online NP programs..words of wisdom?

    *RN123ABC* replied to inthesky's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I guess you are referring to the regents program? I have never heard anything about it. Some buzz that it exists, but haven't heard of anyone actually going through it yet. I will tell you that...

    *RN123ABC* replied to jnd1213's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am not personally acquainted with the Vandy grads, save one. She was not a DE stuent. She had been a CCU/ED nurse for about 10 years. I was suprised to hear she didn't take to NP, b/c when I knew...

    *RN123ABC* replied to jnd1213's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  10. US News Rankings

    *RN123ABC* replied to jnd1213's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am acquainted with a physician that is a graduate of Emory. Great school, right? He's a moron. The other docs are pretty vocal about not trusting him. He's in internal med, was on call, surgeon...

  11. US News Rankings

    *RN123ABC* replied to jnd1213's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I get where you are coming from, because I have kids who have been in the same position. I do appreciate the value of an Ivy League education. If your expensive school is one of the genuine Ivy's, I...

  12. Nurses, physicians weigh in on new doctoral nurse degree

    *RN123ABC* replied to Brian's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Isn't is really a moot point? I know a dozen NPs and I don't know a single one that goes by a title. They are not Mr or Ms so and so. They are Sue, Joe and Mike, etc, the nurse practitioner. I really...

  13. New GRE format?

    *RN123ABC* replied to mommy2three2's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Honestly, I thought the GRE was pretty easy. I didn't prep at all, other than read the NYT every day (a vocab boost). In retrospect, I wish I had practiced writing, b/c I only got a 4 and I'm not...

  15. Have you heard anything about financial aid?

    *RN123ABC* posted a topic in Post Graduate Students

    I saw a story in MSNBC that college financial aid is drying up and that student loans are going to be very hard to get next year. They were speaking about undergrad specifically, but I assume the same...

  16. So, not everyone thinks highly of NPs.

    *RN123ABC* replied to Jo Dirt's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I work with an ED physician who is widely known (by other docs as well) to order every available test just to cover his own incompetence, so it doesn't shock me that a NP might. I just don't think it...

  17. A thread for those awaiting decisions...

    *RN123ABC* replied to Sarah7781's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I think all of the program are getting many more applications this year. I was in email contact with MUSC and they said they have been inundated with applications for their brand new DNP program....

    *RN123ABC* replied to Career#24me's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am full of third hand information today. Like you, I was looking for student feedback last year, and I emailed with a member here who attends the ANP program at GWU. She had very positive things to...

  19. Where is the best online NP program

    *RN123ABC* replied to n4dcb's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    One of my profs got her DNP from Rush. She has nothing but terrific things to say about the whole experience. She already had a PhD and said that for her, the DNP was more demanding b/c the...

    Tammy: Eric (at Duke) told me that to be accepted into the DNP program, a candidate must first be accepted into the MSN program. When the MSN program roster is complete, the applicants further...

    *RN123ABC* replied to Sarah7781's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Today I find out a different professor never sent her electronic LOR to MUSC. They cannot consider my app, since the deadline was 2/1. That app cost me over $100 in various fees, so I'm a might po'd...

    *RN123ABC* replied to Sarah7781's topic in Post Graduate Students

    FWIW, I know someone who went to Vandy for ANP and said it is a great program. She was already employed as the RN in a cardiology office and they paid the whole nut, she just had to agree to work for...

    *RN123ABC* replied to Sarah7781's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Tammy: I mailed ole Eric my CV in a fancy vinyl folder, lol, with a copy of my license, my CCRN certificate, and an award letter I had from some volunteer work I do. I really do not care anymore if...

    Now Duke wants a portfolio. WT_F am I supposed to put into a portfolio? I have been practicing nursing for 15 years, not making art! The admission advisor told me most people just put their CV in a...

    *RN123ABC* replied to Sarah7781's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I couldn't take it anymore, I called them. GW said "application is complete, thank you for following up." ***? Duke said they are missing a letter of rec, though my prof insists she sent it. I'm...
