I wouldn't worry about retaking Chemistry over again. I would be more concerned about not getting any more C's in Organic, Micro, A&P, STT, and Gen. Ed's. I too recieved a "C" (but in Microbiology 220) and all of my other classes were A's and B's and I still managed to get into Wright State's nursing program. Honestly, if your GPA is above a 3.4 when you finish all of your pre reqs you will get in. You can call and ask what their cut off GPA was for Fall 09 and I bet it would probably be a 3.2. Also, WSU does not take the highest grade of the two for the same class. If you retake a class, they will average the two grades. You should just focus on the next set of classes and be thankful you earned a "C". Good luck!

Hello, I am an RT that will be returning back to school to finish up my BSN. I have always loved the idea of administering anesthetic's as a CRNA. I think it is a very cool and extremely rewarding career! Do you feel alone in the O.R.? Granted, you have a job to do. As a therapist, I have collegues that i can ask questions of and/or express my feelings about a certain situation. My fear is that since everyone in the O.R. is a physician except for the O.R. Nurse and yourselves, can you express to anyone about the case you just finished up? Obviously, if you work with a team of CRNA's that will work out, but what if your one of a handful of CRNA's in a group? I sometimes think, (please don't be offended) that as a CRNA everyone will be cold to me. I know as an RT, the very few times that I have stayed in the O.R. the personalities were extremely cold. I always felt as if I was in everyones way. I am just worried. If I don't like where I work, I cannot appreciate the job. To me enviroment plays a large role in my happiness. Thanks for your replies, Ken

Congratulations!!!!!!!!! I hope one day I can post the same exact message. Good luck on your boards.
