Oh I get it, you aren't intentionally being obtuse, you're just thick. Gain some reading comprehension and refer to my previous posts in regard to your, "there is no single route" bs comment. Also, PLEASE OH PRETTY PLEASE show me where I am wrong in that PAs don't need a physician to supervise their work. PLEASE, educate me on the matter.
You would seem to be the one woefully lacking in reading comprehension....
That no single route bs comment as you refer to it is undeniably true but you can keep wishing it isn't...

If that weren't the case, every time you moved to a different state you would have to take their tests to make sure you meet their boards standards, reciprocity is a wonderful thing so don't be so obtuse.
Like I said, your "examples" have NOTHING to do with the main educational requirements for advance practice nurses. They are SEPARATE SUB SPECIALTIES. Get it now? DO I have to make it even more simple to understand before you grasp what I am saying?

Go back and READ what I said....
You really are clueless aren't you
How many routes are there to national certification for a PA......one!!!!!
How many routes are there to national certification for an NP.....more than one!!!!
Who administers the ONE national certification exam to PA's.....an independent organization
Who administers the SEVERAL certification exams to NP's......branches of the same organizations responsible for educating NP's
Capiche????
Understand yet???
What is so difficult about this rather simple concept for you to understand

If someone does not agree with you it does not mean they are dense or slow. No infractions will be given because of multiple mud slinging, but consider this discussion over.
