I personally know of someone who took the exam and got 100 questions and failed, I also know of someone who got 170 questions and failed. My earlier post tells you that I got 170 questions and passed. The best advice I can give to those of you wait...

Yep, I just graduated from TCU. Send me a pm or email me on my tcu account. Talk to you soon!

A "Mommy Makeover"! Scheduled and paid for.......SWEET!

I haven't posted since I started didactic, about 2 years ago. I just took boards, went to 170 questions and found out that I PASSED yesterday! Happy New Year to all the new CRNA's! Hang in there to all of you who are still waiting to hear. It's the b...

I'm just about done with my first year, which has been all didactic, and I am married with three children ages 10, 5, and 3. My husband travels weekly for his job and has basically become a "mother". I totally had to step back and let him handle ever...

I started out taking my laptop to class and found that I listened better and took more away from class by just taking regular notes on the powerpoints presented in class. Though some of my classmates do still use their laptops (I've noticed that some...

Has anyone noticed a change in attitude from coworkers during these last few weeks of work? I just returned from vacation about a week ago and I noticed a huge change. My schedule is horrible, they're constantly changing it and insisting that I work ...

I'm just going to cut to the chase and say SHUT YOUR MOUTH to avlis. Obviously this person is truly idiotic and assanine for posting such STUPID comments. Hopefully, avlis will GROW UP and learn a few things in the process. Good luck to you all, I st...

Just keep thinking about how far you've already come and what an honor it is to be in your position. Remember your reason(s) for wanting to become a CRNA and don't let any doubts creep in. Good luck to you!

Thanks for the input everyone. I will truly miss most of my coworkers, it's just the few that are making it hard for me to keep a good attitude. Six more days of work to go! Not really a bad deal....certainly don't want to burn any bridges. Thanks ag...

The CCRN certification simply stands for Critical Care RN. It is an examination that one must apply for and receive permission to take after completing a certain amount of time caring for patients in the critical care environment (about one year). Th...

I can absolutely relate to your feelings. Although I'm not having to move I still find myself becoming very anxious about finances, lifestyle changes, etc. I have three children and a spouse that works as well as travels alot...his job is somewhat un...

Soliant12, Who wants to be in debt for 150k even on a CRNA salary? I did understand exactly what she was saying. It might not take 30 years to pay off but how about a nice 500-1000 dollar note every month for 10-15 years. She already stated that her...

I have three children, 9,4, and 2 one of which is obivously in school while the other two are in full-time daycare est. 300/week. My husband will continue to work full time while I attend school. We just figured that our total debt for school wil be ...

I applied to two schools pretty much because they are both located in the city in which I live...very lucky for me. I interviewed at two and was accepted into one.

I'm finding it harder and harder to get up every night also and come on in now that I have that proverbial "open door". I can see right through it and I sooo want to walk on through. Things don't seem to bother me much either. I just keep thinking I ...

I'M IN AND WILL SEE EVERYONE IN AUGUST! I'LL BE STAYING HERE IN FORT WORTH....SWEET!! COUNTING DOWN THE BED BATHS AS WE SPEAK! :lol2:

I also can empathize. I am working with a wonderful person who was accepted to the same school I interviewed with AT THE INTERVIEW. It makes me soooo nervous thinking about not going and watching a friend go without me. Fear of rejection I guess. I'm...

I interviewed November 8th. I'm still waiting to hear any news. My coworker also interviewed the week after me and got an offer on the table which she accepted. I hear it's pretty rare to have that happen. Has anyone else heard anything back from the...
