So much writing in NP program

It probably is/was boring stuff to some of us including myself, but unfortunately it's just part of the curriculum. It is also important to note that we have to learn a bit about the theory, philosophy, fluff in order to understand how our practice came to be and why we do the things certain ways. It also paves the way for evidenced based practice, which is key to assessing, diagnosing, treating, and evaluating.

Funny thing is, I actually think I wrote way more APA papers in my BSN than in my NP Program. Most of my writing was discussion board and responses which weren't too heavy compared to actual papers. You'll get through it just like any other program, just have to do the work. Finding a preceptor was definitely harder work than writing that's for sure.
