  1. On the chopping block? Need some encouragement

    Aromatic replied to SnowShoeRN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    yeah that doctor sounds flakey as heck. "oh your fired but i dont have a good reason," More than likely just to keep her internal power trip

  2. Kaplan for NP?

    Aromatic replied to RkeRN1980's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    As BC said, I would not do kaplan. they pray on people in your situation (very sorry about your husband ) I would trust kaplan for their review books but would never get a degree from them. Pick...

  3. What's In A Name Badge?

    Aromatic replied to TruvyNurse's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    i am pretty sure mine is plastic with a clip around it. not quite sure whats inside but if i ever break it scraping ice off my windshield ill let you

  4. Why have you decided to become a NP and not a Doctor?

    Aromatic replied to Lightning90's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    While I am not the one to usually defend nps, the last sentence just shouts out trolling basically. There are some good np programs and you are right in saying that their education needs to be...

  5. Should DNP's be able to practice on their own? How do you feel about midlevel encroachment

    Aromatic replied to curiousobserver's topic in Advanced Practice

    AT least for primary care I would not really be against NPs having the ability to gain autonomy. I am still on the wall about it but after a few years experience they should be able to sit for some...

  6. 2 month vaccination question

    Aromatic replied to nurselove757's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    what are case studies???????????????? didnt know that was a primary way to learn in

  7. Average DNP loans

    Aromatic replied to Ashtimus Prime's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    mmmmm yeah, all of us psych people will be well in business for a while at least now that mental health is actually taken seriously and mental illness is on the rise, probably due to more people with...

  8. Average DNP loans

    Aromatic replied to Ashtimus Prime's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    wow thanks jules, you just reminded me that I am already out 250 of lost wages, tuition, interest, and other med school application costs and I am only through one semester of med school. I hate you...

  9. Why have you decided to become a NP and not a Doctor?

    Aromatic replied to Lightning90's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It would be much better if the PA/NP credential would be completely combined sort of as DO/MD basically is heading toward since DO students will have the same GME credentialing as MD students in a few...

  10. It seems like everyone but nurses make more money

    Aromatic replied to rearviewmirror's topic in General Nursing

    you pretty much have to either to A. complete an education that not many can complete or B. be able to do a job that not many can do. Nursing, while difficult physically and emotionally and a great...

  11. How not to suck!

    Aromatic replied to NP2bman's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Since your dedicated you will almost certainly do well once you graduate. Not sure which books they have you use in the ACNP program your in but when I was in the ICU I pulled much of my stuff from...

  12. Contract cancelled, now company says I can't work for them.

    Aromatic replied to acuriousLPN's topic in Travel

    sounds like there is a reason that place uses travel nursing, as long as the story provided to us is fully

  13. How not to suck!

    Aromatic replied to NP2bman's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Most day to day nursing stuff doesnt require too much critical thinking. At least not nearly as much as the provider role. How is being called a task master insulting? Managing multiple tasks at once...

  14. Why have you decided to become a NP and not a Doctor?

    Aromatic replied to Lightning90's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Actually, I found out yesterday that the physician boards may not be quite as difficult to pass as I previously thought. I took a full length USMLE step 1 practice test that has a 0.9 correlation in...

  15. How not to suck!

    Aromatic replied to NP2bman's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Yeah I like what GF says. Being a know-it-all is only useful if you like it when people hate you and try to undermine you. Just dont be one of those, again, unless you want your life to suck too

  16. Should the title "CRNA" be rebranded?

    Aromatic replied to Openairway's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    CRNA seems fine. Maybe just anesthetist would be a good name? who knows lol, but again then it would overrun with those AA people and whatever they sound like they

  17. Why have you decided to become a NP and not a Doctor?

    Aromatic replied to Lightning90's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Sure you are, its not physics. The biggest hump is the MCAT, once people get over that they are good. If one can score 30+ med school is no problem. There are a few 25ers in my class too, some do...

  18. How not to suck!

    Aromatic replied to NP2bman's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I would add to this but i think its mostly all been covered. Good job preparing early and knowing you dont know it

  19. Why have you decided to become a NP and not a Doctor?

    Aromatic replied to Lightning90's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Yeah kids are a major determent it seems when it comes to education. There are a few people in my class with kids and the top rated student in the year ahead of me has three kids (hi can i have your...

    Aromatic replied to Lightning90's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    sorry, its gamespeak stuff. aka getting into groups online and killing bosses and stuff

  21. Passed the AANP FNP Certification Yesterday-Tips!

    Aromatic replied to GOGOKTFNP's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    It shouldnt take that much review to pass the NP board exam. I think most people in my class just did the required review book they made us do and threw the test down the week of or after graduation....

  22. Taking AANP *AND* ANCC?!

    Aromatic replied to MILOBRI's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

  24. Well priced NP "UC" program

    Aromatic replied to Plumrose15153's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    whats a UC NP

  25. Help to choose BSN to DNP program...is it worth it?

    Aromatic replied to Henr's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I would do the first one minus the DNP part. DNP wont really provide much economic benefit. 120k? Thats almost as much as my med school tuition. I believe I paid 22k for my np (somewhere in that...
