    melrnbcAL replied to sammy2415's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    You are correct, and I was being honest about how hard and obscure the exams were, even with that info above it is no guarantee you will do well. You do have to have some background/knowledge to even...

  9. Anyone applying to UAB MSN program?

    melrnbcAL replied to drewrucker's topic in Post Graduate Students

    They calculate both and take whichever is the highest. But sadly only those that are used to complete a nursing degree, not any fluff, or extra. I too started out low from years ago, foolish, and...

    melrnbcAL replied to Lize321's topic in Advanced Practice
