  1. Anyone in Advanced Patho?

    2015 replied to HikingEDRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    My Professor called Advanced Patho, "the weeding out course". If you survive Patho, you will survive the course. Am glad that's behind me. Now off to Pharmacology. My advice is, if you have time, read...

  2. Should cost matter when picking a program?

    2015 replied to brsm's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Very good point. Am paying almost 80k at Georgetown and I do not regret. If you are flexible to move anywhere in the country, you can find a job that can pay off your loans in two

  6. Georgetown NP program

    2015 replied to nurse meme's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Nurse meme, I asked the same question at one of GU's webiners. They told me there is no limit. They will admit everyone who is qualified. I did finally get in. We are approximately 130 in our cohort....

  8. Seasoned FNP tell me the truth....

    2015 replied to jaznia15's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    What a wonderful person you are working with. It's rare to find such people. I almost cried just reading about this man's kindness. 70k is not bad if RNs are earning less in your small town. The...

  9. Online vs Traditional NP school

    2015 replied to Retired APRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I am attending an online school and I have learned so much in three weeks. The async lectures take forever to go through especially for Patho, but then again, this is extra material that I would...

    2015 replied to davesbride's topic in School, College Programs

    brence30, were you fulltime or part-time in the program. Did you work, and if you did, did you work in the hospital? Am full-time at GU (just started) and the work load is heavy. I want to quit my...

  11. telling your employer your pregnant after being hired

    2015 replied to micheala's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    You are not required to disclose that you are pregnant at an interview. I was in your situation once, and got a job at 6months pregnant. I made a point of working very hard (just like you), and made a...

  13. FNP school and pregnant?

    2015 replied to Cindy-20's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I encourage you to go to NP school if you get in. I have two kids btn the age of one and four. I work and drop and pick my son to and from school. I think I would operate better with a newborn than my...

  14. Is NP School as Bad as Undergrad NS?

    2015 replied to lifelearningrn's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I just started an MSN program. The schools is so supportive. They even call to check how am doing if they haven't heard from me for a while. I owe my admission to them because they kept calling and...

  16. stroke neurology

    2015 replied to canchaser's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Canchaser...you have come such a long way to allow yourself to be treated that way. It's very demeaning. Just look for a job quietly and move on. There is always something to learn even from a failed...

  17. Accepted to Georgetown and Simmons.......now what?

    2015 replied to blue_eyed_mommy's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Tasha...good point about local schools. GU is local for me. Less than 20miles from my house. I would go for a locally known state school than some mediocre online program like University of Phoenix....

  18. Punished for good time management (Vent)

    2015 replied to SionainnRN's topic in Emergency

    Your doctors don't put in orders or did I miss something? Keep yourself busy and don't help. I don't see how you can start helping someone who has three stable when you have five. Use that time to...

    SIMMONS!!! SIMMONS!!! GO SIMMONS!!! Am so sorry, I can't even start comparing Kaplan to

  20. Are textbooks this expensive????

    2015 replied to 2015's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Joanna...that would be a good idea if it wasn't an online program. It reminds me of when I started my BSN with only 10 dollars in my account to cover my bus fare to school and food for two weeks until...

  21. Accepted to Georgetown and Simmons.......now what?

    2015 replied to blue_eyed_mommy's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Tasha...I think GU pass rate is 98%. I would prefer 100%. I thought Simmons is 57K vs GU 77K. Go for GU for the name brand and best return on investment. You will get a job sooner and probably start...

  22. Anyone else still waiting on Acceptance/Rejections to FNP?

    2015 replied to TashaLPN2006RN2012's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Tasha, how have you been? Congrats on finishing your BSN DSRN85...I think you got in. Advisors never try to indicate that you got in until the college officially says so. I bet 100% you got in. It was...

    2015 replied to 2015's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

  24. Are textbooks this expensive????

    2015 replied to 2015's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Thanks all for your comments. Someone asked which school I will be going it. I will be attending GU. We are required to read like five chapters before our first patho class, so there is no way I can...

  25. Anyone NOT work as a bedside RN while in school?

    2015 replied to AlphaPig's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Soon2bAGNP. That's a good idea. Am staying at my current job for networking purposes. If I knew networking would yield me nothing...I would start looking for private duty. Now that you have put that...
