  1. Mount Sinai Med. Center Orientation

    RN_Man replied to nycRN89's topic in New York Nursing

    Nursing pay should never be stated in yearly terms but hourly since that's how it's calculated in our contracts - that and how many hours are people using to calculate yearly pay? Way too many...

  2. Hunter's or NYU's Accelerated second degree nursing programs

    RN_Man replied to Pm92's topic in New York Nursing

    Personally know a bunch of graduates from both Columbia's program as well as NYU's. They are both great programs. The complaint I heard from ALL people I personally know that went through Columbia's...

  3. Hunter's or NYU's Accelerated second degree nursing programs

    RN_Man replied to Pm92's topic in New York Nursing

    I graduated from the Hunter program. It's notorious for using strict composites metrics for admissions. Overall GPA is weighed heavily. Individual course grades aren't even looked at, unless they are...

    First off congratulations on finishing your nursing program and getting an offer at Cleveland Clinic - AMAZING! I don't personally have experience on either units but here are few things to consider:...

  5. Hunter college nursing acceptance

    RN_Man replied to haominli's topic in General Nursing

    Really no way of knowing because it's based on the composite gpa/nln scores of your applicant pool. I would say based on previous years numbers, very limited personal knowledge, you have a good...

  6. Hunter's or NYU's Accelerated second degree nursing programs

    RN_Man replied to Pm92's topic in New York Nursing

    Not sure where you got the information about only current Hunter students applying to A2D program there but its incorrect. It also doesn't make any sense since its for people who already have a...

  7. Hunter's or NYU's Accelerated second degree nursing programs

    RN_Man replied to Pm92's topic in New York Nursing

    I got my BSN at Hunter and my girlfriend is currently at NYU's program. Basically they are all the same. Small differences. The largest is cost. She can go with no debt. I would advise ANY possible...

  8. NewYork-Presbyterian/Cornell Pharmacalogy Exam

    RN_Man replied to NewGraduateRN's topic in New York Nursing

    I took the pharm exam way back in '09 and remember it wasn't too bad. Definitely saw some med's I wasn't too familiar with but overall wasn't too tough - especially since you should get 100% on all...

  11. New Grad in CA License denial - depressed and hopeless

    RN_Man replied to sunnyshine101's topic in Nursing Career

    Sorry to hear about your circumstance. You should know that with ANY criminal history BON doesn't not grant immediate license and will have to investigate, review and decide on license outcome. If you...

  13. Which States Have Nursing Union Jobs?

    RN_Man replied to martymoose's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    It's a one-page document that is given at time of hire, along with union signup forms, at the hospital I work at. Easy as pie. However, if I opt out, I would be opting out of union covered health...

  14. For anyone still looking for work - IT'S POSSIBLE

    RN_Man replied to marathonman's topic in New York Nursing

    That's a funny coincidence! No actually they called and sent the official offer letter before all 5 were completeled (4 completed) but all 3 of the manager references were done (min was 2). The...

  15. Refresher Course

    RN_Man replied to kemifair's topic in New York Nursing

    Don't go into a refresher course thinking that it will make you on par in the job market as a new grad/license RN - all things being equal with no work experience. Can it help? Yes. Is it required by...

    RN_Man replied to marathonman's topic in New York Nursing

    Did you interview for the NICU interview day? I did my I-9 docs and photo for ID that day and talked with several nurses applying for the NICU day. I would say that is a VERY good sign. It basically...

    RN_Man replied to Amarafynedu's topic in New York Nursing

    First, as others have stated NYC is a very competitive market for RN's looking for work, with experience or having none. Not only do the major hospitals - NYP Columbia, NYP Cornell, Mt Sinai, Hospital...
