1. Male Nurse Disgusted by Female Nurses

   AspiringNurseMW replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

   Isn't he doing in this post EXACTLY what he is complaining about. Except instead of crying in a bathroom he is venting to strangers on social media. Why isn't he out there trying to unite the nurses...

2. Is the ATI TEAS really that difficult?

   AspiringNurseMW replied to Medman8989's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   From here on out, you have to really shift your grading perspective, LOL. Entrance exams for nursing are hard. For both TEAS and the other one whose name escapes me, people rarely get in the 90's....

3. Rant. Questions are killing me!

   AspiringNurseMW replied to broughden's topic in General Students

   If it says "enlist the help of a family member", then that family member is present and available. Unless it specifically says otherwise, NCLEX is a perfect world. If one of the answers lists a...

4. When to Start U-World

   AspiringNurseMW posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   I *knock on wood* will be graduating early June of next year. I want to schedule my NCLEX asap. I am certain I want to use U-World as part of my prep. If money is not an issue, how early would you...

5. Getting pregnant during last semester or during new job?

   AspiringNurseMW replied to Steph82997's topic in General Students

   The old school "make sure you get married first" annoys me. But I know that's because I've been in a committed unmarried relationship for 10 years. A ring wouldn't make our commitment any stronger....

   11 days to my birthday 29 days until the last day of class 34 days until my final Thats literally my mantra every day right now. School is not particularly hard, I just learned that I am *over it*...

8. So is there really a nursing shortage?

   AspiringNurseMW replied to VegGal's topic in General Nursing

   So what I am saying is that the shortages are a) regional-- think places where people don't want to live and b) for experienced nurses in most

9. So is there really a nursing shortage?

   AspiringNurseMW replied to VegGal's topic in General Nursing

   Same where I live. I was doing clinicals on a tele unit earlier this semester and the floor manager told us that the hospital system officially declared itself as having a nursing shortage. She said...

10. WILTW 10/29: Trauma for breakfast

    AspiringNurseMW replied to LadyFree28's topic in General Nursing

    I've realized just how much I miss the app. . I used to be on AN pretty much every day, but now if I check in once a month that feels like alot. Using the website feels so cumbersome now. After...

11. New Grad Negotiations

    AspiringNurseMW replied to AspiringNurseMW's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Thanks! I didn't know when was the best time to ask. When filling out an application, one of them actually had a spot for desired salary that was mandatory. I had no clue what to put in there so I...

12. New Grad Negotiations

    AspiringNurseMW replied to AspiringNurseMW's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I was hoping to hear if this was at all possible because most of the posts when other new grads ask all say, no don't ask and just be grateful you have a job. What is wrong to coming to a forum filled...

14. Highest Paid NP for 2015, According to AANP, Are NNPs

    AspiringNurseMW replied to SunshineeStudent's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am disappointed, and yet somehow not surprised to see that Women's Health pays the least. I wonder why. And I wonder if CNM's are included in that

15. 8/13 this week, I've learned the connection between AN desktop, insurance, and HR

    AspiringNurseMW replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    I am RARELY on here now that there is no App. I miss it, but I find being on the desktop version, whether on mobile or my computer to be so disappointing. I mean, seeing as to how school starts in 11...
