This is so helpful. I am in my second semester and I’m just realizing some of these things about studying. This just solidified that I’m on the right track. Your tips about incorporating, studying for boards early and being immersed in clinical study was most helpful to me. Thank you!
Loved this, saved it to favorite videos! This is not the normal way I study but I can totally see the value in these methods. Thank you for posting it!
Thank you so much for taking the time to produce this! I am going back to school after 28 years as a CC nurse and am looking for any edge to help my slightly atrophied brain. Wondered if you had a list of podcasts or youtube channels that you found credible. Again great content!
A lot. But my program was accelerated and on blocks. During the first 6-10wk block all I did was class 5d a week 6-8h days so what worked for me was getting up super early am before class when my kids were asleep. During the block I would estimate 4-8h a day. The next block was just for clinicals and I went down to prn so I would schedule my committed 6 shifts during that 6-8wk block with clinicals. I still studied then but it was less and focused on clinicals topics and board review. This allowed me to graduate in 18m bc I figured I would prefer 1&1/2 yrs of hell than 3yrs of slow burn. But if you have other obligations like kids/family you will have to cut out some work hours to sustain this type of schedule.
Very excellent video. Just been accepted by the NYU AGACNP program. So difficult for an international student who has never studied in the US.

Hi Stephen, yes I have 3 videos on resources that I just published. Good luck with school! Best decision I ever made.
Thank you for your advice. It was very helpful.
Hi, how many hours per day did you study in NP school? Thank you!
