1. Does anyone have interview at MTSA/or current student

   MurseWithAMission replied to pbilbrey's topic in SRNA

   Hey RN910, What'd you think about orientation at MTSA? Did it stress you out as much as it stressed me out (e.g. inch-thick packet on 12-Lead EKGs, inch-thick packet on Arrythmias, Summer Drug List, and Summer Reading)?? I'm attempting to memorize th...

2. Does anyone have interview at MTSA/or current student

   MurseWithAMission replied to pbilbrey's topic in SRNA

   I'm super excited, especially considering my work environment is deteriorating at a rapid pace! I thought having an end in sight would make it easier to come into work each day, but I found that it is quite the opposite! I was debating on buying a b...

3. Chances with 2nd Bachelor's from Accelerated Program?

   MurseWithAMission replied to SlyFoxRN's topic in SRNA

   I had a BS in Psychology Pre-Med from a 4-year private college. In 2008, I went back to an accelerated BSN program and graduated in May 2010. Been working in critical care since and applied to CRNA school with around 1 year of experience. They offere...

   Almcco, I hope you end up getting a spot! Out of curiosity, how did they notify you of being an alternate? Via a letter in the mail or a phone call? And what did they state was the timing? When will you find out one way or the other? Good luck!

5. Average age of SRNA?

   MurseWithAMission replied to ICU, RN, BSN, B.S.'s topic in SRNA

   Lol. I'm 29! I'm not the 24 year old. Graduated pre-med at age 22. Worked for 4 years. Went to 22 month accelerated program when I was 26. Worked in ICU right out of school at age 28. Will start CRNAS school at age 29. Sorry to confuse you!

6. Average age of SRNA?

   MurseWithAMission replied to ICU, RN, BSN, B.S.'s topic in SRNA

   I got into the ICU right after graduation. My problem was that I already got my BS in Pre-Med so I had to go back and get my nursing degree. Wasted years! Lol.

7. Average age of SRNA?

   MurseWithAMission replied to ICU, RN, BSN, B.S.'s topic in SRNA

   I'm 29, and I just got accepted to a program and will start July, 2012 (I will be 30 in August, 2012). I think I am probably around the avg. age.

    Good luck!!! You'll be fine. It definitely was not anything too crazy difficult. Just trust your instincts and don't go back and change answers. Let us know how you did!

12. Does anyone have interview at MTSA/or current student

    MurseWithAMission replied to pbilbrey's topic in SRNA

    I'm not sure about that number at all. I just did a little reverse math based off of the limited knowledge that I had about the applicant pool this year. If you spoke with someone at MTSA, then I would trust that number over mine. How do you think yo...

13. Does anyone have interview at MTSA/or current student

    MurseWithAMission replied to pbilbrey's topic in SRNA

    I know exactly what you mean!!! I'm looking at it this way: I know acceptance is on a point system (so as to keep it 100% objective) and you get points in every aspect of the application; points for competitive GPA, good GRE scores, experience, etc. ...

    MurseWithAMission replied to pbilbrey's topic in SRNA

    No other applications. Kind of placed all my eggs in this basket! Hoping MTSA works out bc reapplication after a rejection requires a 3-credit hour graduate science course and 5 brand new references (my 5 were incredible and I'd have a hard time find...

    LOL. Hopefully in exactly 1 week from this moment, we will be sleeping soundly, knowing that by 2014, we will be board certified CRNAs.
