You really didn't give us anything to help you narrow it down with? 1) MSN or DNP programs? 2) Do you want to take the GRE? (there are very few schools that dont require this) 3) Do you want to take ochem or biochem (some schools require one of the ...
I actually received a job offer before I even graduated. Most if not all of my interviews were before or during Finals. I was literally taking a final and then driving to Houston that night so I could interview the next day for a job. (I went to UTHS...
Well I'm just here to offer encouragement! I just quit my job at Ben Taub to start crna school I didn't read the whole thread but here are some thoughts. 1) Most hospitals in the Houston Medical center are looking for BSNs (sorry but thats the truth,...
