Hello!
Before I begin, I would like to say that I have learned so much from reading these threads. I'm glad that I literally stumbled on this website.
I've been contemplating applying for CRNA school for the past year. I've been working in a Neuro-Trauma ICU for 14 years, have my BSN (3.7 GPA), CCRN, TNCC,ACLS. Since it's been 17 years, I've repeated Physiology and plan on taking Chemistry this summer, along with a PALS course.
My major deterrent has been the GRE. I'm scared beyond belief on taking a standardized test....therefore...I'm applying to Kaiser's program through CSU-Fullerton and I have an informal interview with them this upcoming Thursday.
I'm not trying to knock Kaiser's program, but do you think I'm limiting myself by not at least attempting the GRE? Does anyone know the difference between Kaiser's and USC's program? ( or any other programs?)
I should say if I do take the GRE, I would apply to Duke's and Raleigh's programs because I have family I could live with during school.
Any replies would be appreciated.
Thanks!
