Do you think it is more important to focus on the general concepts that will be applicable to practice rather than the minute details? There are so many details, I'm sure I cannot memorize all of them.

Also, did the PowerPoints provide much guidance for the tests? What specialty did you choose and, if it was a nurse practitioner specialty, how do you like being a nurse practitioner now?

Would you say it is better to memorize the study guide questions or just be familiar with the content? Also, you mentioned to read the chapter summaries. Did you feel like these were a good review of the overall chapter content for the tests, as in if I concentrate on the points discussed in the chapter summaries I will have a decent grasp of the content for the tests?

Apparently there are different sections that various instructors oversee. We had one assigned then she messaged that she was being switched to a different section and now we have someone else assigned to mine.

I asked the instructor for my section of patho and she said she doesn't know. The course coordinator is the one who sets up the curriculum, so now I'm a little concerned about this too.

That's what I want to know, too because if there are no lectures I don't think I can just learn straight from the book!

Thank you so much for the information! When you took it there were no recorded lectures? Also, in the syllabus it says the tests are open book, but the remote proctor rules say your workspace has to be free of any books or papers. How was it done when you took the class?

I am starting my first semester at the University of South Alabama online Adult/Gerontological Primary Care NP track. I started reading for Advanced Pathophysiology and am overwhelmed and panicking about the amount of information! Has anyone taken this class at USA and have any advice? Any help, words of wisdom, or advice are welcome! Thank you!
