Hi Dr. Sampayo, I am currently in a ADN program and I am interested in becoming an NP in the future. I was wondering how competitive are NP programs? Do you need a high gpa to be accepted into one? Also does it matter where you get your BSN? Because I researched some BSN programs and they don't necessarily give you a gpa but rather it is an implied gpa of a 3.0 once you complete their BSN program. So I am curious if going to one of those programs would hurt my changes of getting into NP school. Thank you
It's hard to know the answer as a new grad. You have so many competing thoughts. I dealt with a lot of "imposter syndrome." Give yourself time to adjust to this new role, you'll get there - just need to be committed to setting yourself up for success in this role and surrounding yourself with people who can support your growth.
I hope things got better for you! I agree with Veronica - give it some time, learn what you can, either by yourself or from people who are there for your growth (other clinicians, supervising physician, etc.). It will get better. I hope things got better!
First to comment love you mommy❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕😘😘😘😍😍😍

I asked myself the same question as a new NP?
