  4. GRE scores for top FNP programs?

    hakhama replied to _Skittles_'s topic in Post Graduate Students

    I don't think the GRE is the most important factor but it's nice to have a good score if you are applying to top schools. I got 167 V and 157 Q, 5.0 AW. I think this helped me since I was applying to...

    hakhama replied to BellyfullBirth's topic in Post Graduate Students

    hakhama replied to hakhama's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Rain vs snow - not sure! I have always lived in the upper Midwest and don't love the climate here but I am used to it. Not sure if the grey skies of Oregon would get to me or not. I have a trip...

  12. Yale 2015

    hakhama replied to BellyfullBirth's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I talked today to graduate who LOVED the program, had great clinical experiences, and said having the name "Yale" on her resume has made a big difference in her career. It's making me lean more toward...

    hakhama replied to BellyfullBirth's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Ugh, it's 10:30 EST! I hope they don't wait until the end of the day. I am totally on pins and needles. GEPN applicants, how long did it take you to hear about financial aid after being

    hakhama replied to BellyfullBirth's topic in Post Graduate Students

    So, who thinks "by April 7th" means today? Or would it mean by the end of the day tomorrow? I'm leaning against Yale currently for myself but still would love to hear

  20. Ethical to take permanent position with plans to leave?

    hakhama replied to hakhama's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Okay thanks. I'm not sure it will work out if I am upfront with them as I think they do not want someone to stay for such a short time. However, I'm wondering what I might do otherwise. I'm done with...
