  1. NP specialty, what to choose?

    It’s a tough choice and usually, at least from the experiences of NPs I spoke with or listened to give a lecture, it wasn’t exactly a deliberate decision. They would kind of say “This...

  11. Hey all, I have been considering moving to the Triangle area for a while. I enrolled in an NP program at a school other than Duke or UNC CH (university of alabama at birmingham). I know Duke is the...
  12. PA school is intense but it's also broad. I could have gone to PA school for 2-3 years, or to NP school specializing in one area for 2-3 years. Which will come out stronger in that one area, if both...
  13. You're going to get a lot of anecdotal stories in response to this question about how long to wait (if at all) to apply to an NP program. I decided to wait about half a year after I graduated nursing...
