  1. I bet you just put a bunch of minds at ease haha. Fingers crossed for

  3. Looks like it’s another week of anxiously waiting for
  4. One week of anxiety and impatience down… I’ve been picking up OT just to distract me. Can’t find out soon
  5. Not quite yet. I’d expect to start hearing in a couple
  6. My friend applied too - she hasn’t heard
  7. Nothing yet, just patiently dying
  8. How to spot a bad nurse

    You can tell this isn't written by a nurse without checking who the author is. This is why nurses manage and hire nurses, not doctors. As nurses, we do not work for physicians, we work with them...
  9. I’m feeling the anxiety too! I wish we knew how many applicants there are. I have to say the turnaround time is still pretty darn good even with this
  10. I imagine you would have to reapply, that’s how it was for KU. I haven’t seen any specific info from VCU about that, though I’d be very surprised if they didn’t make you apply all over again....
  11. I was waitlisted at KUMC last year (only school I applied to that cycle). They used a point system and after the interview they gave a complete breakdown of how many points we got. I was told that the...

  14. Not Many Vented Patients - How Acute if Your ICU?

    I'm in a Level 1 academic center in a 12 bed CVICU. Our acuity definitely comes in waves, but it's much higher than that of the surrounding community hospitals that I've worked at. The sickest...
  15. Hey! I'm working on my application right now. Fingers
  16. I have no qualms with it. The only challenge I've come across is the few and far between older female patients who are too modest to allow me to do my job. Women in medicine and other sciences has...
  17. CRNA or med school

    I am not a CRNA (yet), however work in a large Level 1 trauma center teaching hospital CVICU. I have 1:1 most days, 2:1 with lower acuity. My coworkers are phenomenal, hard working, intelligent...
  18. Hey there, I'm new to the nightshift and I decided to make my sleep schedule as consistent as possible, so on my nights off I'm staying up until about 3-4 am and sleeping until 1-2 pm (I work 6-6 and...
  19. Hey everyone! I'm a new grad and I'm hoping to go to BC or NEU. Congrats to those who got in!! Would some of you mind sharing your stats? I'm confident I'll get in but I'd like to know how I stack up....
  20. Hey all, I have just finished up an accelerated direct entry master's in nursing and am planning on applying to CRNA school within the next few years. Here's the synopsis of me: MSN w/ CNL: GPA 3.93...
  21. Thanks for the input! Why do you suggest three years? Just curious
  22. Thank you! That's the plan for the next couple years for
  23. Job Offer During Capstone

    Hey all, So here's my situation, starting with some background about what I want: I take the NCLEX (and hopefully pass) in June, and will officially graduate in August (DEMN program). I would like to...
  24. I am in an accelerated master's degree program, only 1 semester in so far (never been a nurse, bachelor's outside of nursing). It definitely is a good program, and I am confident in the material I...
  25. I do agree with this. I'll again point out that our instructors make it very clear that we will not be entering into the field of nursing with our first position being that of a CNL. We understand...
