Nurse Practitioner Schools

I plan to return to school for a nurse practitioner (a Master's degree than non-nurses for their RN and MSN may have) to be a champion or a physician assistant program. I think I can get in the NP program, but unsure of my chances in the PA program. Does anyone have any advice in which direction should I choose and why? I'm looking at Wisconsin Marquette College of Nursing and a PA program in Illinois at Rosalind Franklin University. Who knows one of the two programs? I see lots of jobs for PA or NP overlapping but I want to be recognized by MD / DO, and I'm not sure how they feel NP PA. Thank you for your contribution. (Incidentally, my GPA above 3.1 and my science GPA is 3.3) I have not taken GRE yet. At its all yours. To learn more about how much and want to have more opportunities to advance your career, a nurse practitioner is probably preferable. To settle in one place and have more job security, then a medical assistant is better How do you see your future? I think they are. I think if you use the NP because of the need for more nurses - but that's just my two cents loyal to my "team" I have no payment has been and always think that it is also a large field .A Nurse Practitioner is not much, much, much more money than an assistant. A medical assistant is usually less than $ 12 an hour when you read in Washington State. Yes, there is some overlap of work even if the PA is usually several surgical jobs, ER, trauma, ortho, while the NP often peds, gynecology, geriatrics, both family practice. The decision is what you want and how you want to get there. PA is taught in the medical model in a mini-medical school that it can go up and the nurses who taught in the nursing model in a nursing school. Are you good at your job, if you are a PA or NP, is respected - they are usually doomed to individual competence in medicine is not the category in which both can get a job in any state in the U.S.and can also gain employment jobs non-clinical and clinical and hospital care. Wages are relatively similar, but in California, PA to do a bit more. Both can prescribe medication. I would consider talking with one of each, and possibly follow in about a day .
