Mike, are you in the San Antonio, TX area? I've seen several of your posts and have tried to message you, but I am unable to. I am about to graduate as an FNP in the San Antonio, TX area and looking for employment. I've applied to several places, how...

Congrats! I am about 2 months away from taking the AANP FNP exam and am feeling a little nervous. I am using the Leik book and Barkley review provided by my school. My plan is to study everyday I am off, and like you, I also made a "wall of knowledge...

Thank you for sharing! I am taking boards in 2 months and have quit my job (due to moving to a new state). I plan on studying 6 hours per day I am not in clinic, and on the weekends. I also have the Leik book and doing the Barkley review modules that...

Thank you for sharing! So, I am about 2 months away from taking the AANP FNP exam, and I am using the Barkley review provided by my school as well as the Leik book, which I purchased on my own. Did you feel one prepared you more than the other? And t...

Thanks so much for sharing. I plan on sitting for boards in Texas the first week of August. I have already started preparing! Your words are very encouraging!

I am currently in the FNP program at UAB, about to graduate next term. I think I remember mine was about 6 weeks on the dot. This was also in 2016, though.

Mike, I am moving to San Antonio in June 2018, and I will be graduating in August and starting my job search. I will be joining SANAP as soon as I move. Did you get your job by networking through SANAP? I see a few jobs on their website I am interest...

Hello, I am finishing up my FNP program this year, and I am planning on moving to Texas within the next year. I currently live in Alabama, and I have heard mixed things about the Texas BON. I have heard there is an extra test you have to take just to...

We are moving out there for my husband's job.

Thank you for the information :) I still have a few months left, but I want to start the process early so anything helps.

Mike, I am thinking of relocating to San Antonio within the next few months. I currently live in Alabama, and I am very involved in the National Association of Hispanic Nurses here locally. I am currently obtaining my FNP degree from UAB. Do you know...

Hello, I just applied for the UAB (University of Alabama at Birmingham) ACNP program for the Fall of 2016 and wanted to reach out to any others who have also applied to see when any of you hear back about if you got accepted or not. Just wanted to st...

Thank you for the tip! I'm starting at UAB in the fall, and my work schedule varies from mon-wed and wed-fri alternating weeks. No weekends. I'm hoping it works out.

I am starting an NP program in the fall as well full time. I am going to be working 36 hours a week, 3 12's with no weekends or holidays. I hope it works!

I got my acceptance letter today for the Primary Care Practice Adult-gerontology NP Program! I will be at the orientation June 2-3!

Thank you for sharing. I have worked in medical-surgical nursing as well as PACU/Outpatient surgery and I have an interview next week for the Operating Room. Since working in the PACU, I've gotten a little bit of exposure to seeing what the OR Nurse ...

I had one sectetary one time that would constantly call me while I was in my patient rooms telling me another one of my coworkers patients needed pain medicine/needed help/ etc.... Later come to find out that she was intimidated by other nurses, so s...

I say definitely start assembling your resume and looking for jobs elsewhere. Your sanity is more important, and it doesn't sound like that environment is very healthy regarding management and the way they are handling the situation. I worked at my ...

I will have 2 years of experience in July, 1 year being med surg and 1 being critical care (recovery room in a level 1 trauma center) so I am also unsure about the track I've chosen in regards to experience, the acute care route. I hope my experience...
