   First and most importantly, you need to apply to more than 1 school. Second, you need to gets As is the grad classes you are taking. No where that I applied ever looked at a science GPA, only cum. Most of those certifications don't matter (sorry to b...

3. Anesthesia Tech from the view of a Nurse Anesthetist

   NYNurse89 replied to cyc0sys's topic in SRNA

   If you were an anesthesia tech who decided to go back to school to become an RN and then a CRNA that might be somewhat useful because you would already be used to an OR/anesthesia type of environment. However, since you are already in nursing school ...

4. CRNA School with a young family

   NYNurse89 replied to ECRNICU's topic in SRNA

   I think it depends on your program. Some people in my program had children so it's obviously doable but definitely not easy. In my program you could think of the time you spent in class/clinical as the time you would spend working but it's all the ad...

5. Do SRNA/CRNAs have to participate in elective abortions and sterilizations?

   NYNurse89 replied to udmgraduate's topic in SRNA

   No one has ever come out and asked me if I'm ok with doing a certain procedure but I would imagine that if you spoke up and said something that they couldn't force you to do it. That being said, I don't think that medicine is becoming "increasingly l...

10. How old is too old?

    NYNurse89 replied to Tangielee's topic in SRNA

    Honestly yes and I feel bad saying it. I would love to be able to say you're never too old but I'm just trying to be realistic. Older students have a higher drop out rate and a lower board pass rate. If you have other things in your life (ex. a famil...

    Worry about boards closer to when you have to take them and just use Apex.

12. HELP! Is it really worth it??

    NYNurse89 replied to J&B-RN's topic in SRNA

    I'm only 1 semester in but so far I would say it's worth it! It is A LOT of work...more studying than I've done in my entire life. School is not fun. However, every CRNA I have worked with absolutely loves their job and thinks it is worth it in the l...

14. What is the most important Pathophysiology for Nurse Anesthesia?

    NYNurse89 replied to Ultraposh's topic in SRNA

    When I responded earlier with ANS I had assumed that you had already been accepted into CRNA school. My new advice is that you don't study for anesthesia at all right now. You have a long road ahead of you and you will learn everything you need to kn...
