  1. Help me out here.........

    tbaughm replied to loveschoolnursing's topic in School

    Could be a cost issue? Inhalers are expensive and many people have trouble paying for

  2. I'm a freshman nursing student with a B+ !!!

    tbaughm replied to bigdreams01's topic in General Students

    Sounds to me like you are doing well. Work on organization and study strategies as discussed. At this point in your education, a B or 2 won't hurt your chances for grad

  3. AANP Certification Exam

    tbaughm replied to nurse54321's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Know the Barkley material, review the Leik question answering strategies and Leik exam tips for each chapter. Pharm questions are often about safety issues. Length of questions vary, but most are not...

  4. FNP ANCC TEST

    tbaughm replied to fwatson's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Be sure to look at the exam content outline on the ancc website. Good

  5. TWU FNP

    tbaughm replied to Mommy2BeorNot2Be's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I just graduated from the program in August. Overall, a positive experience but I have nothing to compare. I did meet a few people who were not too happy with some of the instuctors, but I never had...

  6. TTUHSC FNP 2016

    tbaughm replied to Gensrn12's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    yvheflin, Yes, it is a difficult course. Get organized from the beginning; it is a ****load to learn in one semester. It does really weed out the individuals not willing or able to put the time in,...

  7. Sitting for AANP boards

    tbaughm replied to yramasco's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I like the Leik book (minus the numerous typos) for the last week or 2 of studying. Fitz is too detailed for the final stretch. Leik has a great format for covering the material in a short amount of...

  8. Sitting for AANP boards

    tbaughm replied to yramasco's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Congratulations:up:

  9. Sitting for AANP boards

    tbaughm replied to yramasco's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I did the FNP and I was also told that there could be EKGs. I didn't have any strips but I did have one that described

  10. My I'm going to medical school

    tbaughm replied to synaptic's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Yah and writing a post like you are the bullying quarterback from the movie The Waterboy doesn't detract at all from posting

  11. My I'm going to medical school

    tbaughm replied to synaptic's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Welcome!

  12. My I'm going to medical school

    tbaughm replied to synaptic's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Hi Jules, More shifts and more hours does not necessarily mean an NP has a good work ethic. Work (working hard, diligence) + ethic (honesty, integrity) = work ethic. If those doctors don't know that,...

  13. My I'm going to medical school

    tbaughm replied to synaptic's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Synaptic, although your post(s) may contain some truth, your message gets almost completely lost due to your angry, bitter, childish style of delivery. You are disillusioned; I get it. Being an NP is...

  14. Sitting for AANP boards

    tbaughm replied to yramasco's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Since you have done a lot of review, I assume you know the material pretty well. Pay close attention to Fitz and Leik question answering strategies and review Leik exam tips for each chapter. Know...

  15. My I'm going to medical school

    tbaughm replied to synaptic's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Wow, not exactly short and sweet as promised, but interesting (bitter? angry?) nonetheless. Good luck in med school. I hope your career as a physician is all you expect it to

  16. Advice for MSN, FNP Programs

    tbaughm replied to K.TX BSN.RN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    TWU will still consider you with a GPA less than 3.0, but I am not sure how likely you are to be

  17. APEA vs FHEA

    tbaughm replied to FNPDUKE's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I graduated in August and passed the AANP Sept 17. I did the online Fitz and Hollier reviews initially and then the last week or two used Leik to focus my studies. I did take some APEA exams to see...

  18. APEA vs FHEA

    tbaughm replied to FNPDUKE's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I did both Hollier and Fitz online reviews. I agree Hollier is definitely easier to listen to and more to the point. In addition to many others, her lecture on various forms of anemia was really...

  19. TTUHSC FNP 2016

    tbaughm replied to Gensrn12's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I finished my RN-BSN at TTUHSC in Dec 2009 and graduated in August from TWU with my MSN (FNP). If the Texas Tech program is similar to what it was a few years ago, you will be very well prepared for...

  20. Advice for MSN, FNP Programs

    tbaughm replied to K.TX BSN.RN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I just graduated from TWU-Houston in August. I had a 4.0 gpa and could have gone to UT or many other colleges. If you can get accepted at TWU without repeating classes and you truly feel you are ready...

  21. Another "Find Your Own Preceptor" Thread

    tbaughm replied to Angeljho's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I was lucky to go to a university selected to be a part of the GNE demonstration, which helped in finding preceptors. However, the program is relatively new and participating students are not...

  22. Texas Board of Nursing timeline for APRN license

    tbaughm replied to ashonman's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    An update for those looking for Texas APRN licensure timeline information: Sounds like Texas is slow compared to some of the other states. My license just became official yesterday. I applied via the...

  23. Nurse Practitioner School

    tbaughm replied to sweetnsugar123's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Thanks for the article BostonFNP. It was very interesting. From my experience: I am a new FNP graduate with 2 years of RN experience. I don't believe my experience helped much with actual clinical...

  24. Malpractice/Liability Insurance

    tbaughm replied to Cannary22's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I also use NSO. School insurance usually covers students so mine wasn't required, but I always have my own policy. I think it was a few hundred for the year. Also, it covers you for both being an NP...
