5. What do you do to stand out in residencies/new grad positions?

   klynette replied to klynette's topic in Texas

   I go to school currently in Pennsylvania because when I graduated high school, I was interested in building my life on the east coast. Now, five years later, I don't want that anymore and I want to go home to Texas where all my family is. I wish I ha...

   So I'm graduating with my BSN in May of next year. I attend college out-of-state, but I'm a Texas resident still and am moving back to Austin. I'm getting anxious about the prospect of finding a job mostly because I didn't get an externship and I don...

7. Resume for clinical assistant positions?

   klynette replied to klynette's topic in General Students

   I planned on putting the rotation and location, I just wasn't sure if I should add anything else (like duties or something, I guess) since they wouldn't be familiar with the particular school.

9. CRNA Vs. MD

   klynette replied to Amir's topic in CRNA

   I think you're forgetting that, most often, you have a 4 year undergrad degree for MD or at least time to complete the pre-requisites. And even then, after 4 years of med school and 4 years of residency, the person may do a fellowship to specialize i...

11. Hospitals Helping With Tuition?

    klynette posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    I've been volunteering in the ER here for the past 8 months and ended up speaking with the ER Director, who told me she often hires college students and will pay for fees and tuition if their major is in the medical field. This would be lovely if I w...

12. Nursing School Influence CRNA School Acceptance?

    klynette replied to klynette's topic in SRNA

    It kind of makes me think of high school. Is it better to get B's or C's in an AP course than to be in a regular class and get an A?

13. Nursing School Influence CRNA School Acceptance?

    klynette replied to klynette's topic in SRNA

    What I mean is notoriety, I suppose. Being prestigious and getting a lower GPA based on a harder classes versus getting a good GPA at a school that's not as prestigious and easier to go. I don't know. Like going to UPenn versus some other school or s...

14. Nursing School Influence CRNA School Acceptance?

    klynette posted a topic in SRNA

    So from what I've been picking up on this forum, most schools tend to look at GPA, GRE scores and the interview and if I'm wrong, please correct me. However, I'm kind of curious if the actual school you went to is also factored in? I was accepted to ...
