Sorry, I didn't save that information and they might have changed books since I took the classes anyway. I did the 3 yr part time program. If you want to start on something, I would memorize 2 charts for pharmacology- one is the treatments steps for...

You don't ever get those years back with your kids, so I'm sure in the long run you wont regret it. Be prepared to have to work as an RN to get some work experience on your resume. I would advise making a list of about 20 of the most common diagnos...

I'm from Michigan, Hillsdale County-quite rural, and would agree that rural areas have more job availabilities. I was fortunate to find a part time job as a new grad, but even around here most jobs want at least one year experience. Our local urgent...

I'm not exactly sure what my GPA was before WGU, I would guess a little over 3.5, maybe a 3.6. I'm curious how CSU did factor in my WGU GPA and if it lowered my overall GPA. There was another WGU grad in my cohort, but I'm not sure what her previou...

I got my BSN from WGU and graduated in May 2019 from CSU's FNP program. I've heard their program has been getting more competitive so maybe they no longer accept WGU grads--but just guessing on that. I did get a 4.0 and was well above the class ave...

I am being hired by a nursing home because the MD is having trouble keeping up with charting. I believe this all gets billed under the MD as he will oversee and approve all my visits. Is it common that the nursing home pays the APP directly, but the...

APEA course was most helpful of the three- other 2 Fitzgerald and Barkley. APEA Hollier compared to other 2 was more energetic and entertaining keeping your attention. She also broke things down to a simpler level and uses clever mnemonics. The vide...

A lot of it is just what questions you happen to get. I was given Barkly CDs and had fitzgerald audio. My school required Hollier. Took my boards today, passed, and recognized many of the questions from Hollier course and Leik book. Maybe another set...

You could probably get into a noncompetitive type of NP schools that accept tons of student, but charge private school rates. I graduated with my BSN from WGU and got in at Columbus state university in Georgia, but I hear they are much more competit...

Its probably about average work-load wise compared to other FNP schools. I did the part time program since I have young children which makes a big difference compared to full time program. I'm guessing I spent about 2-5 hours a week on the program s...

They help a little if you live in Georgia, at least their sister school, CSU-that I attend, does. I live out of state, but ended up being able to find all my preceptors locally.

I am attending Columbus state university. They combine their program with the GSW students and follow the GSW class dates instead of CSU's. I live in Michigan and pay instate tuition rates which is great and why I chose them. Instate tuition in Mich...

It actually might be ISBN 978-0803638273

ISBN 978-0803638273

See my above response I think you may be looking at the wrong page of the booklist. I think it may be 978-0803638273

Actually look at the tabs on the bottom of the booklist link. That book is listed under "Core" but Woo & Robinson are listed under "FNP". When I took the class we used Woo & Robinson. Might want to double check with them before you buy. I...

I am a part time, current student. Try this link Resources for the semester layout and booklist although perhaps they are changing it up since applications are so high. The summer isn't any different than the fall and spring semesters as far as quali...

Yes all three cost money. I cant remember how much but something like between 100-200 for castlebranch and typhon each--they are a one time fee and you will use both the entire program. The liability insurance is pricey and is to be paid every year ...

That makes sense that it is part time if you start in the spring 2019 as you may be just lightening your load of non clinical classes but still graduate with the same class that starts full time in the fall 2019.

That happened to me when I was accepted a couple years ago. I wanted part time but was automatically assigned full time. I do not remember it being asked on the application and it was a hassle to get switched to the part time program. I don't know ...

I am graduating in May in from their PT program that started in the Fall. Unless they are changing it up this year, clinicals begin in the fall semester. Since I was PT, I did not start clinicals until the 2nd yr fall semester (I am working on my 3...

This is probably a dumb question. I work on a med/surg oncology unit and sometimes float to ortho, but I've never heard of a policy of vitals every time before pain meds. We do frequent vitals after surgery procedures for several hours, but not for ...

They do lead you to believe that as there were several frustrated students in my patho class over that. They recommend taking the test on your lunch hour.

but..you are prob taking pharm first because of your start date instead of patho first? I am taking pharm this semester so cant give you any info on test date flexibility

I can only speak for Patho as I just ended my first semester (my Health Policy class didnt have any tests). The quizzes are open to take for two days and anytime during those 2 days (Sat, Sun). The tests are not proctored, but are only available to ...
