Sarah Michelle was a great study tool to prepare for boards. Uworld for active recall was also helpful but these questions were much more difficult in my opinion, however the rationales are phenomenal and in depth to help you grasp an understanding of why. I graduated earlier this year and my first job starts in a few weeks. I’m excited and nervous all at the same time. Would love to connect as one new NP to another! Wishing you the best.
Hi!! Thank you so much for the video. I would really love to hear more about UT Arlington, as i am currently in the struggle of trying to find the right program for myself. I am either doing FNP or PNP primary care. I'm a current peds nurse! Did the program require you to pretty much learn with your textbook on your own? Or were there pre recorded/zoom lectures? Interactive material? Thanks so much for your time. I'd love to hear general pros and cons of UTA!
It really felt like a self taught program. Yes lots of textbook reading and pre-recorded lectures. The most I would get from my professors was emails with updates, and then answering certain questions we’d ask in the discussion boards. If you aren’t someone who can be very diligent and self-motivating, then it may not be for you. Hope that helps!
Hi Destiny! I always wanted to progress into the provider role, even when I was in nursing school. So I had the idea in my head to either do CRNA or NP. When Covid happened, it was really rough on my mental health working in the ER. That is really what prompted me to start school. Then during school as I was learning, I found what I liked and went from there. It's a lot of responsibility, but so worth it. I love having my nursing experience/background, because that shaped me to be more personable and warm at the bedside. Hope that helps!
Thanks so much for this! Like the other poster mentioned, I have been binge watching your videos. I am currently in nursing school. I love watching videos of other nursing students, but as an older student, I sometimes can’t relate to them. Because I am older, I have debated pretty much going DE to an FNP program. I would work as a bedside RN while in FNP school, but I just don’t want to wait to start a program. Can you please share your thoughts on this?
Hi Emmie! I totally get that you'd prefer to go straight into an FNP program that way there isn't a break in between school. But to be honest, your nursing experience and knowledge is SO crucial for your baseline navigation of the healthcare field. That experience is invaluable, so I would recommend at least working 2 years before starting the program, and then continue to work as a nurse while you are in school, so that way you'll have about 4-5 years of experience of being an RN before starting in your role as an NP. Hope this helps!
@@throughlaineyseyes Thanks so much for the good advice! I’m sure the time as a bedside RN will fly by. Can I ask how you studied for the NCLEX? Did you use books or videos? Thanks!
I literally have been binge watching your videos. Great content and you are so wholesome ❤️
Awh thank you 🥹 thank you so much for watching!

Yes!! I’d love that ❤️ good luck! Please reach out if you need anything!
I passed my AANP ❤️
Yay!!! Congratulations ❤️
I agree... I took the Fitzgerald review and it wasn't great. I found more success with Leik and Hollier, I took boards in 2018 so it's been a while.
Thank you so much for your video , keep it up 🦋🦋 Love from Montreal

$6500 per month is literally nothing 😳
