Why should I get a Doctoate versus a Masters degree to become a nurse practitioner?

I am currently in a DNP program but there are masters program that take less time to complete and you can still work as a nurse practitioner. Is the extra school to get the doctorate worth it? #DNP #FNP

What resources are available to deal with stress from classes?

Sometimes the workload from assignments and frustration from not understanding material can be overwhelming. Are there resources provided to help students during these times or during midterm and finals? #college-stress

How can you manage your time in college?

I'm asking this because college can take up a lot of your personal time. Like will there be a lot of homework everyday for every subject? There will be deadlines around the same time so what can you do to turn it in on time.
