   Berliner replied to Roland's topic in CRNA

   The only problem, Roland, is you may never get to "explain" anything. You'll have the ACNP/ MSN already in your apps and they may just skip over you because they don't have a post-masters program/ abilities. As I have posted in many of your threads,...
