   Yea they postponed the changes.

2. Is the GRE as hard as it looks?

   Burnt2 replied to mommy2BCD's topic in SRNA

   just check out books from your library. they all come with practice cds. no need to spend $$ on it.

3. Another GPA question!

   Burnt2 replied to Annieee's topic in SRNA

   Like swans and LVADs, (IMO) it helps you get a really good grip on understanding hemodynamics; especially in patients in cardiogenic shock. its a learning tool - its about advancing your knowledge of human physiology. Organ/coronary perfusion, workl...

4. Another GPA question!

   Burnt2 replied to Annieee's topic in SRNA

   your GPA is fine GPA will help you get an interview, but in my opinion really its how you spend your time in the ICU that matters to them. Stuff like the CCRN, experience with balloon pumps, swans/hemodynamics, drugs, critical thinking etc. If you w...

5. Are There Crna Schools Easy To Get In?

   Burnt2 replied to maria s's topic in SRNA

   Your GPA is excellent; if you pass the CCRN you will have no problems getting into a school. Many schools don't even require the GRE if your GPA is above a certain level. The fact that you are from outside of the US, speak a different language, etc...

6. do you need to go to a nursing school to become a CRNA?

   Burnt2 replied to SBCHEV99's topic in SRNA

   wow haha

7. Any CRNA have a NP degree?

   Burnt2 replied to Burnt2's topic in CRNA

   I would tend to agree. I read rage's link, i'm not so sure that ARNP can be used to imply that the CRNA could then switch over and work ED as a nurse practitioner. From what I got from that ARNP/APN is a broad term used to describe all APNs, under w...

8. C's get degrees

   Burnt2 replied to mitch8lem's topic in SRNA

   its an excuse I used and it can come back and bite you in the butt if you're looking for an advanced degree. Stats is hard until you realize it's basic algebra cloaked in important sounding names. You'll do fine, don't sweat it.

9. Case, Akron, Youngstown

   Burnt2 replied to LfmVigilo's topic in SRNA

   hey foreverLaur, my undergrad was a BSN - for the first few years I really didn't put much effort into school, so my GPA was Once I decided to go to CRNA school I took 12 credits of graduate human physiology classes, got a 4.0. I didn't do a graduat...

10. do you need to go to a nursing school to become a CRNA?

    Burnt2 replied to SBCHEV99's topic in SRNA

    Take a shot at med school. you've got all the prerequisites, might as well study for a month or so and give a go at the MCAT. You could do the CRNA thing. A guy I work with is a RRT, but he got his nursing ADN, and is now currently getting his acute...

11. Any CRNA have a NP degree?

    Burnt2 replied to Burnt2's topic in CRNA

    Thanks for the responses, guys. Thats the plan for right now...Case Western's FNP program is online, so I'd be able to do it and work at Cleveland Clinic as a CRNA (or so I hope, anyways)

12. Part time ICU

    Burnt2 replied to mitch8lem's topic in SRNA

    I did every weekend commitment

13. RN to MD?

    Burnt2 replied to KungfooNurse's topic in NP

    Both PA and NP are great choices, and from what I understand in actual clinical practice there isn't that much difference between the two (although I think this has been debated ad nauseum). In this day and age, I think there is more of a sense of s...

14. Any CRNA have a NP degree?

    Burnt2 posted a topic in CRNA

    Just wondering. I'm starting an MSN CRNA school next year....since the core nursing classes transfer I was thinking about getting my FNP after the CRNA. The reason is, my wife and I are going to be working for an NGO in Africa or possibly Haiti long...

15. DNP Article

    Burnt2 replied to prairienp's topic in Doctoral

    I agree with you 100%. The problem is, DNP's are being sold as physician equals (which is the impression anyone who reads that article will get), when clearly DNP's are not when it comes to true clinical practice. So either they need to promote the ...
