  1. I found this on the net and I thought some of you fellas maybe intrested in. I don't qualify because I am still waiting to hear wheather I am accepted or not. Anyhow this is how it goes: "The American Assembly for Men in Nursing (AAMN) Foundation and...
  2. ATT (authorization to test)

    Hi guys, I was just wondering how long did you normally have to wait to receive your ATT letter after you registered with Pearson-vue. Are there ways they can expedite the process? I gave them my email and on their website it says "it could take up ...
  3. Food insecurity in America.......

    I agree, this is troubling for me to bear, but it's a fact and we must face it. Perhaps, we can divert some funds and create programs for these children as they are a priority. Maxs
  4. Did any of you go to these schools??

    thank you, this means so much to me.l

  6. Rush non-accelerated BSN

    Congrats on your admissions, I had clinical instructors that thought at both Universities Rush CON and UIC CON, they said the clinical segment was more easier then UIC since they didn't have nearly as much paper work (care-plans). Both schools are pr...

  8. Did any of you go to these schools??

    I just graduated from UIC CON and it's in the top 3 nursing schools in the nation. They're very intense, however, they provide you with ample of resources e.g. instructor's, tutors, computers, softwares, clear-concise instruction, student-feedback in...
  9. I say this patient is being abused...

    That is abuse, the patient should be able to speak because the pt is the subject that needs to be treated and remember about 80% of communication is conveyed through body language. Do what is right and report it to your supervisor mainly because the...
  10. Although MM is not credible to speak of this subject, he is however, a celebrity/journalist and has the resources/right to make such documentaries and report it. The point of this documentary is to inform the public of this health desparitie (corrupt...
  11. D I S C R I Mi Nation

    Alright, I am a male RN/BSN Student in my last semester doing my leadership rotation. I can't complain, and I am knocking on wood. Since I am only a student, I haven't seen as much as some of you on this board have. So, that puts me at a disadvantage...
  12. Marriage and Nursing school ?

    It's hard, but it might be a good indicator of the potency of your love. Maybe one of the reason's why your getting a career change is because you probably don't love your lover as much. First thing to do is to examine your thoughts and mind. Evidenc...
  13. Male Nursing

    nursing is fun! Even OB/Gyn rotation, it all depends on your clinical instructor. I had the best clinical instructor therefore, I never had any problems. All the girls helped me out whenever I needed. There's a lot to a nursing career, so, I would re...

    HI I am currently a 23 old UIC (university of Illinois at Chicago-top 3 nursing school in the nation) nursing student. I AM A SENIOR AND I HAVE 2 MORE SEMESTERS TO GO. SO WRITE THIS DOWN OR BOOK MARK IT. http://rmoskowitz.tripod.com/ap1_lecture_note...
  15. Main Problem In The Nursing Field?

    -Shortage of males in the nursing field which makes it so different from any other career for one. -we can standardize the care, but how can you standardize compassion? So, in this society that we live in, BIG companies have managed to make people ...
  16. Man-hater in my clinical

    Vent! I am being sympathetic. Maxs
  17. should this girl pass nursing school?

    it sounds like a personal problem to me. Maxs
  18. A&P and basic Chemistry

    yeah it's possible
  19. Can I stomach nursing???

    Work as a CNA because it prepares you more than some of the prerequisites will prep you. Maxs
  20. Scholarships for men wanting to be nurses?

    Well, check with your financial aid advisors because they know more about this topic then anyone. I don't think community colleges, offer scholarships in general (because they already their system is different than those of universities) however, if ...
  21. Advice on getting accepted in BSN Program

    Most BSN programs, require a minimum of 2.5 cumulative GPA. The fact that he had an F in Anatomy and Physiology, could hurt him. He should take the A&P and the class he earned a D in again because some schools will count the better grades of the ...
  22. Chemistry!

    Forget all the zeros and all that crap because it will get complicated as you start multiplicating avogadro's number's. Given: 12 nm Find: ? cm so you set it up like this, 12 nm X 1E-9 m/1 nm X 1 cm/1E-2 m = 1.2E-6 cm Remember nanometers and met...
  23. IMO, nobody likes being a CNA. People will eventually be burnt out and give up. High school science is a lot different from the sciences required for nursing. It's not like one will study about planets and plants. Also, I don't think you should let y...
  24. I think it all depends on your situation. For example, if you want to be an NP or CRNA, then you would need the hospital experience. If you're not going for your MSN, then it's a matter of your convenience. Maxs
  25. What I am Taking This Summer (Is it too much?)

    On the positive side the math is not against you because my calculations predict that you will have to sleep 6 hrs a day, 1 hr for your baby, 3 hrs to eat, travel, bowel, showers, brush and etc. So, you will pretty much have 98 hrs to study in a week...
