I have read most of the replies on the post and am completely amazed. I can understand the concern expressed in regards to salaries of the CRNA's because we all have bills to pay and families to support. However I am shocked no one seems to appreciate the help that this bill will provide to those who are not as fortunate as to make 60k a year yeah we all worked hard to get where we are, but everyone's circumstances in life is merely that "their circumstance". As care giver's who hopefully went into the field for what they could do to help others first and financial stability second some of these replies seem self indulgent. Secondly, the figures and numbers expressed are highly skeptical to say the least, as evidenced by the post by wtbcrna and based of what I read in the monthly journal released by the AANA who strongly support the "Health Reform Bill". This is one of the few countries that it appears we seek to be MD's, nurses, or CRNA's for profit first instead of to spread healthier practices to our fellow americans through education and expceptional care. Just in case anyone was unaware you already take a cut in pay, when you pay that increasing insurance coverage amount caused from the misuse of ER's and etc. At least with this bill eventually those who are able to afford insurance will be required to cover themselves, decrease the costs for those struggling to maintain coverage and those who are unable will be given the assisstance they need. Hopefully the next step will be to promote prevention and maybe we will become a healthier country, afterall what good is 180k if you die from a MI!

Run dont walk to valley.........just my opinion

I am also Nigerian I will be starting CRna school 2009. My father's family is also from Imo state.

Hello, I recently made a difficult decision to withdraw from my anesthesia school because it just was not the right fit for me, I felt like I would be doing myself and my future patients a deservice if I continued. The environment just was not conducive to learning, without going into details. My gpa is great and I left in good standing. I was wondering if any one has made this decision and reapplied to a different school and if so, what was the outcome. Thanks,

Got it!

are you in the akron vacinity, b/c i have not received on yet and was told that one was sent.

what day last week did you get your letter I called and the secretary said they were sent out, but a lot of people had delays in recieving. I seem to be one of those.

thanks are u applying to the program or applied if so what questions were you asked

thanks

how about now?

If your heart is in it your dedicated and this is the only viable choice then YOU CAN DO IT! I know people who've accomplished it.

Just wanted to know if there are any individuals out there applying to Akron's anesthesia program, any word yet as far as interviews?

thanks for clarifying that viking girl. Because I also thought it was vt or vfib, but it does make sense that the MOST common to occur would be PVC's:yeah:

thanks suarc

Akron Interview permalink Hello, I would like to get some help from anyone who might know about the interview questions at akron, if you have interviewed or know some one who did. What questions were you asked? I was told that they test drug knowledge, but do they expect you to know dosages as well. Every little bit helps. Thanx
