Walden University NP classses

Published

I've been admitted to the psych NP program at Walden. I'm trying to decide whether to take 1 or 2 courses at the same time. I would like to hear from someone who has taken courses there and who can speak to how difficult /easy they are and how many hours a week each course takes. I work 40 hours a week. Thanks.

I'm currently at Walden and took 2 classes, it's doable. I took Health Assessment and Pharmacology by itself

How many hours a week would you say you spend on each class?

I probably spent less than 20 hours a week except for Evidence Based Practice. I hated that class! Patho, Pharmacology and Health Assessment takes a lot of time due to the reading and practicing on the assessment.

Congratulations guys! I will be starting in May 30th... I do have a question for those of you that have already started....Do you'll order your text books from Walden or outside Walden? Any info is appreciated!

When you get them from Amazon, do you buy the newest editions; or do you get away with getting an older version for super cheap?

And how are the exams delivered at Walden? Are they required to be taken at a proctored site, or do you have to be monitored via webcam?

Thank you very much!

I purchase the edition that is listed on the school site. The test are non proctored. You won't start taking test until Pathophysiology.
