A little background on me, I just turned 24 years old. My first few years of college were spent playing collegiate football, after a few injuries i decided to pursue medicine. After talking with a plastic surgeon, he turned me on to the career of a ...

Just a quick update... I went the nursing route, graduated in dec 09, and have since been working in a CTVICU. I took the GRE, and im scheduled for the ccrn in a month. I just sent out my first application to VCU, and the remaining schools in another...

Hey, I'll be applying to kpsan this go around as well. So it looks like you will be my competition...lol. Anyways, from people who have graduated from the program, this is what they have told me, they like people who volunteer, and people who serve o...

Basically the title says it all. Im curious why people apply to the schools that they do. Now i always hear the generic responses, "go where you fit in" and "someplace where you would like to live"(actually not a bad one) but how do you know if you ...

So i just finished up the GRE today and i can honestly say it was definitely more stressful than anticipated. But i ended up scoring a solid 1380, v:660 q:720, so i'm pleased with the 2 month study plan, and the hard work paid dividends. Anyways, i j...

msnurse14 your welcome and thanks! two pups- good luck on the gre, be confident and put in some serious effort the remaining few days...you'll be glad you did! And update how you do once your all finished!

LSU for in-state tuition is a great deal! RN 1980 im curious what things have you heard about UT-chat and memphis that would have you leaning towards them?\ jdog- Ya i think you are right about Barry, their attrition rate is a little high, but thei...

If i could only choose one book, i think far and away the princeton review was the best. I attribute 95 percent of my score to princeton review and kaplan gre vocab in a box. I wasnt necessarily on a rigid study plan but what i did was i started mem...

they may accept you if you wow them. Think about it, the average applicant will have 2.5 yrs xp in a solid ICU, gpa 3.7 ish and a gre of 1100ish also most will probably have a CCRN (something u can only take a test to try and get after 1750 hours spe...

I think both sides of the fence can take blame on this one. I, one who has researched the crap out of this profession, can definitely see where the poster is coming from. I can sense a subtle disdain from many of the nurses from this forum when an in...

Hey cube, ya USN2UNC had it right. I meant 21 months of xp. Im actually 26. I spent a couple years messing around playing college ball before i got hurt and then became serious about school. But my career goal is to become a CRNA, not necessarily an ...

So, it's about that time, time to start applying to CRNA programs. I have been working in a cardiac icu for the last 8 months, and am in the process of studying for my GRE and then probably my ccrn next. I have read, read, researched and read some ...

But... back to the topic. Any CRNA's out there?? Like i said location is not a problem, i like to travel anyways

I'm a "He" just to address the whole gender issue. Aside from that, i'd have to disagree with your above statement. From the people that i have talked to who are currently in anesthesia school, I have been told that there has been no real difference...

Sorry been away on vacation for the last week. One of the problems with networking at my hospital is that there are no crnas. In nevada, the anesthesiology groups are pretty powerful and have pretty much black balled most crnas from working in the st...

Sorry been out of town and away from my computer. One of the problems with networking at my hospital is that there are no CRNA's. In nevada the two anesthesiology groups of MDs apparently are pretty powerful and not many CRNAs work in the state of n...

As previously stated...these DNP programs are for currently practicing Advanced Practice Nurses, or people who already possess an MSN. My old school (UNR) just started a DNP program as well. 5 semesters i believe, online. DoctorofNursingPractice

Thanks for the review. I jus graduated (well in two days actually and I'll be working on a CICU so my gf but me the metacardia LT.10 as a graduating gift and i was like what is this stethascope? She said it was suppose to be one of the best ones, an...

that is some great advice silver. In the long run, i do feel it is probably better to be upfront and honest about your intentions, but this situation is almost a catch 22. If you tell them your plans, then you can get a letter of rec, and you dont fe...

Hey guys, 24 yr old nursing student here. I'm in my second level, (graduate Dec 5!) and right now i can't help but wonder if i made the right decision to go to nursing school. A little about me; i played football for 13 yrs (including 3 in college)...

Hey Geniva, not sure if my other post went through or not (i wasn't finished). Oh, well. First you need to get your BSN (RN), whichever way suits you, there are quite a few routes. Second you need 1-2 yrs in the ICU, and then third, you need to apply...

I just did interviews for quiet a few ICU positions. My end goal is definitely to become a CRNA; that is basically the whole reason i am even becoming an RN. It is imperative not to mention that you plan on working in the ICU for 1-2 years only to je...

Hello, So, it is about that time, time to graduate from my BSN program and start an exciting career as an RN in the ICU. Even before starting nursing school my goal has been to graduate from a BSN program, get a job and experience in a high acuity IC...

haha, thanks for the laugh. I'm not sure how someone comes across gay in a blog but... i'm sure your the authority on this matter, not me. lol The reason i didnt apply to a PA school is you need a whole bunch of infield experience before you can be a...
