   mmlpn replied to crna2blg's topic in SRNA

   You're not the only one. My 3 buddies in my unit are interviewing this week and have had their noses buried in their Stohlting books during their entire 12 hour shifts. The MTSA interview is by far the most intimidating interview I've ever had and th...

   GRE scores and GPA of 3.66 are competitive. Experience looks good. I wouldn't worry about the FNP thing. That shouldn't hurt your chances at all. If anything it shows you have drive to further your education. Good luck!! Go for it. I would definitely...

   mmlpn replied to crna2blg's topic in SRNA

   I had 4 years of CVICU experience and the one student made me feel like a chump. Askin stuff no ICU nurse would need to know for their profession. But good luck man. I've got 3 friends from work interviewing for MTSA in Jan as well. Keep us informed!...

7. Tired of searching for CRNA Interview Questions??

   mmlpn replied to crna2blg's topic in SRNA

   No I ended up taking a spot at TWU. My buddy from work ended up accepting his spot and he loves it. I did take a tour of the "school" and they have some pretty top of the line sim labs. I didn't like that the seniors and juniors share one large class...

   mmlpn replied to crna2blg's topic in SRNA

   Hardest interview I've ever had. You get to pick the specialty your most comfortable (CVICU, MSICU...etc) then you draw a pt scenario and they hammer you with questions about drug MOAs. I ended up having to explain drugs down to the effects on calciu...

9. Is there any online programs

   mmlpn replied to amos24's topic in SRNA

   Exactly. Many DNP/DNAP programs will allow you to do a lot of the Doctorate classes and fluff classes online but I don't know of any that allow anesthesia classes online. And frankly, I don't think I would want a degree from a school that did. You wa...

    mmlpn replied to rippington's topic in SRNA

    Interviews are a little different then because I work in a CVICU and every question was CV related until I mentioned I weaned my own vents then it took a sharp turn into PEEP and ABGs. But, as stated here, it is very CCRN based so go in being prepare...

    Questions are based specifically on your patient demographic you are used to. As stated above, they will ask you questions you won't know. They are looking for an opportunity to work you through a problem to see what your thought process is like. My ...

13. TWU vs MS

    mmlpn replied to mmlpn's topic in SRNA

    I want to work in a major hospital after I get done just to gain as much experience as I can but eventually yes I would like to be in a smaller, rural hospital and be a lot more autonomous. I actually had thought about pediatric oncology but I spoke ...

14. TWU vs MS

    mmlpn replied to mmlpn's topic in SRNA

    Yeah I didn't necessarily mean fluff as in easy. I meant fluff as in filler classes. Like theory and the ones that don't require a lab component. I'm sure they are still time consuming but hopefully it will allow me enough time outside of school to c...

    mmlpn replied to mmlpn's topic in SRNA

    Thanks for the info!! I went for my MSU interview yesterday and it went really well. I got a lot of my questions answered and they explained their side of the lower pass rate a few years back. I also forgot that MSU allows you to continue working dur...
