i agree with benm93...... what you dont need is more nursing theory...you are right pmfb-rn about Np and pricing themselves right out of the market. The DNP is a monster created by the ivory tower of high education and the boards where the higher ed's sit......nothing more. When was the last time you heard a master NP, walking out of a patients room stating, "damn, if only for a DNP, I could treat this"? You dont.IMHO: OMG the DNP students have the ego thing really bad already..........sad

I have personally have gone through both to brick and mortar version of crna school and online NP school and the online school is much tougher. You are on your own with online education most of the time. We did not have time for opening books during test. .Have I seen snobery from traditional brick and mortor students......yes Does it make sense to drive 45 minutes to listen to instructors read word for word powerpoints that could be read by me at home.....noTruth is....online education in a busy schedule/family is one of the most efficent ways to learn period.
