I passed by AANP a few weeks ago. I used board vitale, Leik book, APEA test bank. For me, I thought the leik book and board vitale were the best. APEA I think gave a whole lot more information than needed. From the questions I can remember study on : High BP, Asthma, Squamous basal cell cancer, rhinitis, syphilis, trich, osteoarthritis, finkelstein test, Meniscus tear test, rhinitis medicamentosa, glaucoma, definitely read up on the elderly and changes that the elderly go through, placement of stethoscope to hear certain hear sounds such aortic stenosis, cranial nerves, PVD, PAD, giant cell arteritis, polymyalgia rheumatica. These are the topics that I remeber on my exam. But honestly, from the others that were I my class an hae taken the exam, it really is a crabshoot what you'll get. I didn't get one cranial nerve question, while my other classmates got several.

I currently live in jersey and going to penn. Because of virtual learning, I can do that. But once we have in person classes, I will be commuting.

Thanks for your helpful input.

Please help

I just got accepted. hopefully I will love it

I got accepted. Yay!! Im soooooo happy. I really didn't think I could get accepted to an Ivy league school, but I did. I wish you all the best and please lets keep each other lifted in prayer and in encouragement. I will surely need it.

I applied for the Spring semester. I haven't heard anything back yet though. Keeping my fingers crossed. Im so nervous. How are you guys going to pay for your education there? Its another daunting thing on my mind.

Hello everyone, Could someone who currently or has gone to U penn answer this question for me please. I don't know which class to take, NURS 547 Scientific Inquiry for Evidence-based Practice or NURS 637 Introduction to Research Methods and Design. Which class did you take and did you enjoy it? Which is the better class to take. I haven't been accepted yet, but im keeping my fingers crossed. I was looking at the curriculum and wanted some feedback from anyone who has taken either class. Thanks in advance

Thank you so much for your response. I have not been accepted yet. But I am hoping that I will. Does anyone know about the financial aid situation?

For those of you who have been accepted, how is the program? Is it worth the price? Do you feel that you are getting the IVY league experience? Did you make a good decision by going to upenn

She should be sentenced. But not for 10 years. That’s overkill.

I'm Currently searching for an NP program that has clinical embedded in the program, which means that the school has the responsibility of finding clinical sites and a preceptor for me. And honestly, I have found very few schools that will take that responsibility. They always email me back that it is the responsibility of the student to find clinical sites. ? I couldn't believe that even seton hall. With how expensive their program is, doesn't find clinics for their students. It's so annoying, and I am not trying to go through that stress.

So I did my MPH through liberty University and they were very unhelpful when it came to getting clinical sites to log in my clinical hours that were required for the program. I was able to secure a clinical site and had to pay for my clinicals at the site. Fortunately, it wasn't too expensive. But then it makes you think, what am I paying for if I still had to come out of my pocket to get a clinical site. I paid $150 a month for this site and made it that I was able to get all my clinical hours in two months. At first it was going to drag on for three months. Which would have meant more money to spend, so I scheduled myself so that I could get all the hours in two months. It was tough but worth it.

I don't think the original post was judgmental. I think its a legitimate questions if the doctors have posted this note all over the patient's chart. I think I would also question why so many high dose strong narcotics have been ordered for the patient if they didn't try another route. Pain management is a tricky field.

I worked in a pain management clinic and boy oh boy will people be manipulative to get drugs. But as the previous poster stated, you have to be suspicious of everyone. But I really actually enjoyed working in a pain management clinic.
