Hi Chare, Yes, I wouldn't expect otherwise. My question, however, asks for examples of schools that do not require a standardized exam for these three disciplines. I have successfully passed advanced pathophysiology, advanced pharmacology, and advanced physical assessment. NRSKarenRN, Post University requires one to sit for a national exam, entitled "the 3P exam" administered by APEA once you successfully complete advanced pathophysiology, advanced pharmacology, and advanced physical assessment. I am looking for schools that do not have this national exam requirement.

Yes, I'm a statistic. Presently enrolled in Post University and did not pass the 3p exam twice. While I won't indicate how badly I think the program is run, it was entirely on me to pass the 3P which I understand. I made a 60 on both attempts and would like to enroll in a program where this isn't a requirement. Does any such program exist?

Congrats! I am about to embark on this challenge. Could you message me your email...I want to better understand time commitments.

Hello, Is anyone aware of affordable BSN to DNP programs? I am eyeballing Liberty's DNP program, especially since I am former military (tuition is $300/hr). While I would enjoy a Mental Health Practitioner specialization it is $1200/hr. Yikes. My BSN will be conferred in September. If I pursue Liberty it will be a generic FNP but does award DNP (no MSN in route; however, you can test for FNP upon completion of requisite coursework...).

Upfront, I'll admit I'm jaded. Incivility is never appropriate; however, life is tough. I cut my teeth in nursing in the United States Army, first becoming an LPN/EMT under their tutelage. One benefit of such an approach (besides the incentive to stay in shape) was a focus on the outcome of learning instead of the process of learning. More specifically, feelings, while important, were secondary to learning the material and passing the class. In the service, if you failed out of one of their schools it meant you were recycled to the "needs of the Army," which on any given day could be cook, truck driver, gasoline specialist, artilleryman, etc. [read: mostly likely something you didn't want to do...] It might be worth a qualitative analysis to determine how different generations define incivility. Having completed three courses of graduate studies, I assure you I have run into every type of professor out there. Typically, if the professor engenders an attitude of incivility, I make it my business not to become "butt hurt" over it, move on, and get done what I need to. In my most recent foray into nursing education (finished my ADN after 22 years as LPN), I was shocked at how modern nursing students in their 20-30's correlated incivility with the request of doing work. "This is so unfair" is a mantra paraded about by those who think reading five chapters of material a week is too much.

I completed an LPN to ADN program and successfully sat for the RN NCLEX on 7/6. I passed in 75 questions: My strategy: 1) Archer review, average of 300 questions/daily 2) I purchased and read Michael Reid's CliffsNotes NCLEX-RN Cram Plan: Illustrated Edition (available at Amazon for $22) and read it through twice 3) I watched nearly all of LevelUPRN's videos on Youtube (Pro tip: change the playback speed to 1.5x so they go more quickly.)
