Interesting enough the school that is 18k has the highest rank in the US world news deal, its Florida Atlantic University. Great reputation in the area just started a medical school as well. They set you up with your own clinical sites and precepto...

No Allnurses.com recommends Walden via school listings, ads and links (not 100% they are getting paid but they are eveywhere) . What its not a good program. Just joking. Walden is not one of my choices.. If it were I probably wouldn't go in the f...

So I'm narrowing down the schools I'm applying for NP school. I have 3 years working in a respiratory care unit (stable trachs, vents, livers, traumas, strokes no drips or pressors) like an IMCU. All the schools I'm considering have live classes ty...

I'm curious on who everyone is talking to. You are debating the merits of NP programs and graduates with people on Allnurses. No one on here has any juice to make any of these things you are debating about happen. But, we are talking to people lik...

I don't even know what you are trying to say my friend. So for APRNs to be able to legitimately state their outcomes are on par or better than docs they have to completely separate from the medical community? The NP can't ever train with a doctor i...

I understand the frustration and the passion. We all want the nursing profession to continue to advance and the current conditions of NP education is not allowing this growth to happen. If nurses want to be a more integral aspect to primary care an...

Just when I thought I was out they pull me back in. Again my main point is if you want to make a change I don't know if being salty and shaming others will get you the results you are looking for. I hope you guys feel validated with every scathing ...

Not all heroes wear capes. You are my new favorite human. Stay classy

Out of the only two choices you have in this situation you choose to continue being salty. You have chosen wisely. I will check back in a couple of years to note your level of saltines and how much shaming others on allnurses has impacted np school...

Well I would say be a little more realistic my good friend. I guess people will just keep on bring crappy nps by going to crappy schools because patient outcomes are crappy relative to doctors, oh wait the outcomes aren't crappy relatively speaking....

I am waiting for you to organize your Million Nurse March my friend to change this issue. I see apart of your strategy for this endeavor by shaming people on Allnurses rather than being positive and empowering others. I think you are off to a good ...

Well it seems the market has created this situation (poorly designed NP programs). Nothing like this changes overnight, so the OP can wait until the collective nursing/healthcare community gets their act together and create sweeping changes to NP pr...

I just started the application process. I went through a few of the forums from years prior for NP programs at FAU and it seems a some folks had issues with NursingCAS and their transcripts not being loaded properly or errors when the college sent t...

For GIGU the final i don't know what campus you are at but at Central the subjects were [TABLE=width: 0] [TR] [TD]Urinary Tract Infections [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Pyelonephritis [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Glomerulonephritis [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Urinary Tract...

Perry and Potter is a great book. There are hundreds if not thousands of great nursing books but ask most people they never open up Perry and Potter again after process I and II. I don't know if its from the pain and torture of having to read and u...

You can rent it. For central campus you don't open up Perry and Potter ever again after done with process I and II. I don't think anyone should have a problem with it being rented and you don't really have to say anything. I don't know if by renti...

RescueNinja123, the journey to become a nurse is a difficult one. Filled with dedication and sacrifice no matter the direction you choose. But, if its your passion, then it can be one of the most rewarding journeys and career paths for you. So, do...

this topic always stikes up a nerve. This always reminds me of South Park episode when they keep saying "They took our jobs" (hilarious). I feel elisa938 is making very valid points especially about knowing your status is illegal and not taking act...

hey alisha87 getting started and finishing up the prerequisites is a huge step I know it was for me. I'm pretty sure you don't need Micro to apply and get accepted into the program. If there is any way to get into a Micro class before the fall I wo...

I know there are some concerns about books and which ones you need. This is for Central Campus and I started last year May 2014 so they usually don't change too much stuff but here is my advice from experience with the goal of not spending as much m...

Hey guys hope the wait isn't too painful for you. Just to give you a little more hope, if you are able to meet minimal requirements to apply and your paperwork is correct then you will get in. There maybe people "wait-listed" I don't know the exact...

LondonFog getting a B is very possible but don't get caught up in the grade just keep getting better at understanding what works best for you regarding studying, time-management, test prep, etc. If you don't receive the grades you are looking for do...

For Central Campus Theory Class will be Monday and Friday 9am to 12 pm GIGU only theory class 1pm to 4pm Clinical for Process 1 and 2 will be on campus for first 6 weeks (must pass return demo) 730 am to 4pm maybe 5pm For clinical in every course the...

Wow its seems like a lifetime since I started the RN program here at Broward but was only back in May 2014. I've gone through: Process 1 and 2 in the summer like most of you will be doing GIGU first half of fall PEDs 2nd half of fall (the toughest co...

Wow, process I and II are over. Summer is a evil beast that is unforgiving. But, I made it and did very well by Gods grace. Haven't really looked through your posts so don't know whats been said, but I will wish you luck and I hope that you all ma...
