If you do well in the BSN program and are able to have their faculty write a letter of recommendation, I feel they would look favorably on that. As far as getting in just because of your alumni status, I doubt it. Consider this: If you are a mediocre...
BSN material was not that difficult just time consuming (bc I worked full time and have kids). What study strategy works best for YOU in CRNA school? I like flash cards but do not see this as a viable option due to the time it would take to make the...
ejnjj143- Be sure that you're taking college chem, not just a general or entry level chem that most BSN programs require. OChem (for where I went for my BSN) required CHM 111 & 112 as prereqs and they did not count CHM 101 & 102. Just double ...
Hey DJ-SRNA,, how's the OLOL program going? I'll be applying there in a few months (hope to start Jan. 2018) and was wondering how you (and other current students) like it. Will you be getting plenty of heart & head cases?

Hey there. I'll be applying to OLOL soon and with any luck, I'll get accepted and start start January 2018. Are any of you alternates reapplying this year?

Thanks for the quick replies. I'll be getting to work on the shadowing right away. I might as well take extra classes until I get accepted. I'll start with redoing Chem II (since I had a C the first time I took it) and then maybe Bio Chem or the Stat...
My initial timeline got adjusted but I'm excited to say that I have my BSN and am studying for the GRE. I will be applying to CRNA schools this (2017) year; the application deadlines vary. I'm looking for advice on beefing up my application to be as...

I decided against NRSA 403 & am taking a chem course every semester until I apply. By the time that happens, I should have enough to make my application more attractive. Busy, busy but it will be worth it :) Thanks for all of your responses.

Continue to take Chemistry classes even after you graduate with your BSN. In the time that it takes you to gain enough ICU experience to become an attractive applicant, you can be taking one Chem course each semester & set yourself apart from oth...

From what I've been told & have read, sounds like you should take as many chemistry courses as possible. Seems like Organic Chem isn't a requirement for most schools but it's like having your CCRN- You better have it under your belt bc everybody ...
I have a child who will be 2 in April. I want one more child. I plan on graduating with BSN May 2015. I would like to apply to CRNA schools following graduation. By that time, I will have approx 1.5 years ICU experience. I'll be applying to VCU &...

Well, I'm in CHM 111 now, plan on taking 112 this summer. Plan: take a chem course each semester until I get in. Being realistic, I will be fortunate & overjoyed if I even get wait-listed. I have come to terms with the fact that I just won't have...
My brother & his wife did the whole snow ball effect & paid off everything. They have 2 kids and he is the sole provider. They own 2 cars & a house. The only debt they have is their house. The kids have a college fund started & they p...
