Hi All!I am seriously considering the PMHNP program (the one year program), but have several questions that would be best answered by people in the program or who have gone through it1-Is this program crazy intense? Is it doable with a family? Can one keep working PRN? Can you describe how intense it is? 2-What is the success rate...I mean what percentage complete the program and pass the licensing exam3-I have a 3.95 GPA but no nursing work experience and a fair GRE 1300... what are my chances? How does this compare to people who have been accepted?4- What is the employment rate of recent graduates of this program, esp those with little prior nusring experience? What types of jobs / salaries are they able to secure?Any enlightening info on this subject will be greatly appreciatedBodhi :)

They are very big on GPAs and GRE scores so I think you have an excellent shot in gaining acceptance. Good luck!!
