Then becoming a Nurse Practitioner could be a perfect fit! It\u2019s a growing career full of opportunity, diversity and impact.\n\nIf you are considering this \u2013 or another \u2013 career path, you probably have a few questions. Picmonic has helped countless Nurse Practitioners on their path to their dream career, and we are here to help you too! Below are some of the most important questions and answers to know if this is the path for you.\n<h2>Q. Why is being a Nurse Practitioner a good career?<\/h2>\nThere are so many reasons! Let\u2019s start with the basics. Nurse Practitioners (NP) are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncsbn.org\/nursing-regulation\/practice\/aprn.page\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">advanced practice registered nurses (APRN)<\/a> (along with Nurse Midwives, Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists, and Clinical Nurse Specialists) who are licensed and able to manage their patient\u2019s health with greater autonomy. NPs can focus on specific populations or specialty areas. More on that later.\n\nNurse Practitioners like their job. Job satisfaction is important, particularly when your chosen career requires an advanced degree. One study found that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.science20.com\/news_articles\/66_percent_of_doctors_recommend_careers_as_nurse_practitioners_instead-152021\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">88 percent of NPs were happy with their career<\/a> and recommend students pursue a career as an NP.\n\nLoving what you do is one thing, but what about the job outlook? That\u2019s good too! The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) shows <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bls.gov\/ooh\/healthcare\/nurse-anesthetists-nurse-midwives-and-nurse-practitioners.htm\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">the NP field growing at 26 percent<\/a> (well above average) from 2018 to 2028, due to factors like emphasizing preventative care to an aging population. The BLS also reported the median salary for NPs is $113,930\/year, or $54.78\/hour. Pay depends on numerous factors including experience, specialty, and where you work \u2013 in both geographic and healthcare setting. But, suffice to say, NPs are compensated well for a job they enjoy.\n<h2>Q. What is a normal day like for a Nurse Practitioner?<\/h2>\nOne thing is certain, there is no \u201cnormal day\u201d for NPs. As an NP, you can work in a wide variety of healthcare settings, including hospitals, physicians&#8217; offices and clinics. In more than 20 states, NPs can practice without physician oversight, opening the way for NPs to start their own private practice. The impact of NPs is growing across the country in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/brucejapsen\/2018\/06\/05\/nurse-practitioners-boost-presence-by-43-in-rural-america\/#3d63b93f648b\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">rural settings<\/a> experiencing a lack of accessible healthcare, and in urban and suburban settings with expanded opportunities. All of these factors make for a vastly different work day! Once you look at different practice areas, the \u201cnormal day\u201d is in the rearview mirror.\n\nMost NPs, though, will do some form of the following during their day:\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle; margin-left: 25px; line-height: 30px;\">\n \t<li>Review your patient schedule and get prepared to see your patients.<\/li>\n \t<li>See patients! That\u2019s obvious, we know, but what goes into seeing patients involves working with your team, diagnosing, treating, making referrals and more.<\/li>\n \t<li>Complete charts, paperwork and write prescriptions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Q. What are some of the specialty areas for Nurse Practitioners?<\/h2>\nSpecialty areas for Nurse Practitioners include:\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle; margin-left: 25px; line-height: 30px;\">\n \t<li><strong>Acute Care<\/strong> \u2013 with this path, you can work in an emergency department, urgent care or operating room. Some even become <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-hospitalist.org\/hospitalist\/article\/142565\/leadership-training\/role-nps-and-pas-hospital-medicine-programs\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">hospitalists<\/a>!<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Adult-Gerontology<\/strong> \u2013 this specialty focuses on the care of elderly patients and can be in long-term care facilities, hospitals and clinics. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.census.gov\/newsroom\/press-releases\/2018\/cb18-41-population-projections.html\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Just in time<\/a>, too, because older Americans are projected to outnumber children for the first time! The focus will include gaining expertise in Alzheimer\u2019s disease and dementia, managing chronic conditions, conducting physicals, executing preventative care and educating families and caregivers.<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Family<\/strong> \u2013 Family Nurse Practitioners work in adult, pediatric, and gynecological primary care in clinics, hospitals or long-term care facilities.<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Midwifery<\/strong> \u2013 nurse midwives are a fast-growing field. Nurse midwives can provide prenatal, delivery and postpartum care. They can also perform gynecological services and can work in a variety of settings like hospitals, birth centers and health clinics.<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Neonatology<\/strong> \u2013 in this field, NPs work with preterm and full-term infants and their families, who are facing chronic illnesses, genetic disorders and life-threatening conditions.<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Pediatric<\/strong> \u2013 Pediatrics NPs can work with infants through young adults performing well-child visits, sports physicals, preventative care and more in hospitals, clinics and specialty departments.<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Psychiatric-Mental Health<\/strong> \u2013 NPs in this field work with not only the mental health conditions patients face like depression and anxiety, but also the physical ailments that commonly accompany mental health issues, like diabetes, cardiovascular disease and obesity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Q. Do NP programs require an entrance exam?<\/h2>\nYes, typically a Nurse Practitioner program will require the GRE. The test is broken down into three sections: analytical writing, quantitative reasoning and verbal reasoning. As expected, the higher your score, the better. However, NP programs will look at your comprehensive application including experience, GPA and more.\n\nTo learn more about what to expect with the GRE as you prepare for NP school, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/nursejournal.org\/resources\/gre-guide\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Nursing.org<\/a>.\n<h2>Q. What are my NP school options?<\/h2>\nBecoming a Nurse Practitioner, like any career that requires an advanced-degree, takes commitment, focus and a lot of work. The path NPs take, however, can look different for everyone. Some start their career as a registered nurse (RN), nursing assistant, vocational nurse or even a career outside of healthcare. Many people will earn a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN), though, which requires practical courses that will help in NP school.\n\nYou have two options when it comes to what degree you pursue to become a Nurse Practitioner:\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle; margin-left: 25px; line-height: 30px;\">\n \t<li><strong>Master of Science in Nursing<\/strong> \u2013 this path takes about three years to complete<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP)<\/strong> \u2013 the Doctorate programs usually include courses in population health and healthcare leadership<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nRegardless of which path you choose, make sure you attend a program accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) or the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN).\n\n<strong>A pro tip:<\/strong> research how supportive your intended program is with regard to your current personal and professional life. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.missouristate.edu\/nursing\/doctor\/default.htm\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Some programs<\/a> ease the transition into graduate education by offering services like clinical placement, personal mentorship and guidance during challenging projects, like your DNP Capstone.\n<h2>Q. What are the prerequisites for Nurse Practitioner school?<\/h2>\nIf you are planning to go to NP school, you will first need to become an RN. This is almost a guaranteed requirement. However, there may be schools that will accept another combination of degrees and experience. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.picmonic.com\/pricing\/nursing\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">If you aren\u2019t an RN yet, don\u2019t worry<\/a>, Picmonic for RN can help you get there!\n\nYou will also need to have nursing experience. The average experience of an NP student is around 10 years, but most programs don\u2019t require more than a few years.\n\nAs far as required coursework, being a RN means you will have completed the courses most NP programs require. Generally, schools will expect you to have completed the following courses:\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle; margin-left: 25px; line-height: 30px;\">\n \t<li>Anatomy and Physiology<\/li>\n \t<li>Chemistry<\/li>\n \t<li>Psychology<\/li>\n \t<li>Microbiology<\/li>\n \t<li>Nutrition<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Q. How do I do well in my NP program?<\/h2>\nWe aren\u2019t going to sugarcoat it, Nurse Practitioner school is going to be a lot of work. Knowing that going in, though, you can plan for what will be expected of you. The best way to do well, stay as balanced as possible and enjoy the process (you are, after all, doing this because you love it!) is to go into it with a plan. Outside of your classes, you should plan for several hours of studying every day and on weekends. Don\u2019t leave all of your studying to one or two days, try to balance it though your week by planning well using whatever method works for you: have an accountability partner, use a giant white board or calendar, color-code everything with post-it notes, or plan with digital scheduling and reminders. The important thing is to work the plan. And that plan should include Picmonic.\n\nStudy tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.picmonic.com\/pricing\/nursing-np\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Picmonic\u2019s visual learning system<\/a> will reinforce what you are learning in class and what you are studying outside of class. One way to use Picmonic is to think of it like a workout warm-up for your brain before study sessions or lectures. Picmonic will also reinforce and solidify concepts from your classes.

We are here with you from the first day of your first class, through your board exam armed with videos and infographics, study guides, unlimited quizzes and customized study recommendations on your personal dashboard.\n\nThe other tip we can\u2019t stress enough, is to cut yourself some slack. This program is not meant to be easy. If you struggle with a topic or don\u2019t get the grade you expected on an exam, relax. Ask for help, work with study partners and log onto your Picmonic account for some review.\n<h2>Q. What board exam do Nurse Practitioners take after graduation?<\/h2>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nursingworld.org\/certification\/aprn-consensus-model\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Consensus Model<\/a> provides guidance and consistency for the regulation of APRN, including NPs. The model regulates the specific preparation, education, state licensure, and national certification required. There are several national certification exams depending on your practice area, including: Family Nurse Practitioner, Adult-Gerontology Nurse Practitioner, Acute Care Nurse Practitioner, Pediatric Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.\n\nEach exam consists of around 200 questions completed over four hours. Every five years, nurse practitioners must renew their national certification and demonstrate ongoing competencies.\n\nWe\u2019ve got your back! The Picmonic Learning System improves long-term retention as well as test scores. We want to help you learn it for your coursework, recall it for tests and in clinicals, retain it when it\u2019s time for your certification exam, and use it with your patients.
