  1. Anyone else accepted to St. Mary's CRNA Program for 2005?

    iliket3 replied to jacads's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Congratulations on getting accepted. This is the school that I intend to apply to in about 2-3 years. I have a questions for you if you don't mind. What was your app like? GPA? How much...

  2. How to Compact the trash...

    iliket3 replied to susanna's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Well if this is true, I might as well shoot myself in the foot now. I have a 4.0 in my sciences and a 3.6 in nursing. Granted we all know that 3.6 in nursing is NOT straight A's. I've read...

  3. Can someone please tell me about disaster drills?

    iliket3 posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    I have looked for this info everywhere and it is nowhere to be found in any of my texts or study guides. What is the difference between an internal vs external disaster drill? Do you assess...

  4. 265 Questions and I passed

    iliket3 posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    I am in a complete state of shock. I found my results this morning and I passed. I can't believe it. I always thought if you had that many questions you pretty much failed. I've been crying all...

  5. Please Help!

    iliket3 replied to BSNgrad2004's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I just spoke with 2 of my fellow students who just went thru the Kaplan course - they said it was EXCELLENT. When we talked - it seemed Kaplan emphasizes the areas where I had alot of trouble and...

  6. 265 questions, I'm terrified!

    iliket3 replied to Belle03's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I just had 265 questions and I passed. Got my results this morning. Ya know, I cried ALOT and drank alcoholic beverages to drown my sorrows. Of course nothing made me feel better. Like everyone...

  7. 265 Questions and I passed

    iliket3 replied to iliket3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Okay for example - in an external disaster drill who do you assess first? Patient A/B/C/D and it gives you patient age and condition. It uses the same question format for internal disaster drills....

  8. Can someone please tell me about disaster drills?

    iliket3 replied to iliket3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    That is so funny that you posted that because that is the one site I found and read. Like you boy do I wish I would have read the delegation, management and disaster information before. Than I would...

  9. I failed....

    iliket3 replied to nursy2b's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm really sorry. I'm fairly certain I'll be in the same boat. At least you will know where your problem areas are. I did just from the number of questions in each category I got. Than I panicked...

  10. 265 Questions and shocked

    iliket3 posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    Usually I just peek in to this area and never EVER thought I would be in the situation that I am currently in. I took my test this am and had all 265. This is after graduating with honors and...

  11. 265 Questions and shocked

    iliket3 replied to iliket3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I've been crying all day - ridiculous because all of you are right. Besides it is only one test and I wasn't planning on working until the end of summer anyway. I think what hurts the most is how...

  12. Time for family

    iliket3 replied to FLCRNA2B's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Qwigley, your opinion made my the hairs on the back of my neck rise. I agree with the optimal situation - highschool, college, grad school, family, blah, blah, blah. But this is the real world. And...

  13. Time for family

    iliket3 replied to FLCRNA2B's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Thank you Trauma Tom for your reply. I agree with you 110%. I have been told time and time again to go when the kids are young. When they're older, they have school functions, sports, friends and a...

  14. What's going to keep you motivated????

    iliket3 replied to SRNACHIC's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I so agree with you. Though I am not yet an SRNA, I think there is nothing wrong with saying the salary is a huge motivator. Absolutely. Personally I think people are kidding themselves when they...

  15. Time for family

    iliket3 replied to FLCRNA2B's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I too will be in a similar situation when I begin. Granted, it's a couple of years away yet but I figure by the time I start my son will be 4 or 5. My husband and I have been discussing this...

  16. Here's what AAs really think of CRNAs

    iliket3 replied to Athlein1's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Yes Alansmith, I agree with you. It is getting overrun by the "global allnurses.com network." Some posters are making remarks that make no sense. While I am a nursing student just finishing my ADN,...

  17. about doubts

    iliket3 replied to B.T.H's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I just have such high expectations of myself. I am a perfectionist (big surprise) and set unrealistic goals at times. The nursing content is easy yet I still struggle to get that glorious perfect...

  18. about doubts

    iliket3 replied to B.T.H's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Well, it makes me feel a little better that someone actually had to study while in nursing school. I'm not at all kidding myself about the difficulties of NA school. I have no familial examples to...

  19. about doubts

    iliket3 replied to B.T.H's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    That was the first post that I have read that is very discouraging to me. Most undergrad classmates breeze through nursing? Wow. To everyone, was undergrad nursing a breeze? And by this I mean,...

  20. about doubts

    iliket3 replied to B.T.H's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Although I'm still a nursing student, I at times feel the same way as you do. I have a long way to go - am currently in my second year of ADN, than I need to finish the bachelors degree and so on....

  21. BSN or Bachelors in Biology???

    iliket3 posted a topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Hello everyone, I am wondering if anyone in this forum has opted for yet another route to becoming a CRNA. I have decided upon something a little different. There are no schools in my immediate area...

  22. BSN or Bachelors in Biology???

    iliket3 replied to iliket3's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I appreciate all of your input as far as this matter is concerned. I do not intend to do a "mass admission" type of thing and will only apply to 2 or 3 schools in my area. All of those schools...

  24. BSN or Bachelors in Biology???

    iliket3 replied to iliket3's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Thank you very much for your input. I honestly could care less about how a BSN nurse feels about an ADN nurse, so I won't worry about that. I think that entire debate is silly anyway. I know for a...

  25. Thru program w/ children

    iliket3 replied to Rhon1991's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    As a new member, I feel like I just regressed back to the Dark Ages. One question for those who feel mom's job is to stay at home raising the children. If mom is staying at home fulfilling those...
