   Lol, Umm....I'm not sure where you're getting that, what you're saying is 100% wrong. Anesthesiology one of the MOST competitive specialties to get into. Never have I come across any data, or even...

   loveanesthesia, thanks for the reply. Are there any CRNA's here that work a lot of overtime that can chime in? If you're willing to work 60 hrs a week, what's the max you can make on a 1099

   Noobposter posted a topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

   I've been contemplating a career change and have been reading these boards for a couple weeks now, but I still have a few questions about CRNA pay. Fyi: Before the invariable "looking at CRNA and...

   Noobposter replied to Annieee's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

   I don't know that the educational investment is inordinately short compared to other well-paying degrees. A JD is three years after a bachelor's in anything. For one, the large majority of lawyers...

6. CRNA vs. anesthesiologist

   Noobposter replied to jermaughan0814's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

   You cannot be serious with this question! DO's and MD's are both physicians. You asked why should there be another doctorate degree for performing anesthesia. I'm asking why there needs to be this...

7. CRNA vs. anesthesiologist

   Noobposter replied to jermaughan0814's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

   Why does this "doctor" exist? What the hell is a "doctor of nursing?" Now, you compared DNAP's to PharmD's (which are comparable to DDS's and DPM's, which are 'physician-level' doctors of specific...

   DocHolliday, you seem pretty hung up on this "doctorate" level of education and how most CRNA degrees are classified as master's. The truth is that you just happen to live in one of the only...

   My sister has always scored above the 90th percentile (USMLE, board cert exam, etc) and has over 10 years of experience in her field. She has told me a number of times that she has met PA/NPs that...

    Noobposter replied to jermaughan0814's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    If anyone has an inferiority complex here, it is the young DocHolliday. What kind of doctor would register an account on a nursing forum just to belittle the posters? And after reading his post,...

11. GREs

    Noobposter replied to Special31's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    They generally say the average person can improve their score by about 200 points after working through a prep book. Unless you are below average or just too lazy to read through a book, don't waste...

12. How did you choose your school?

    Noobposter posted a topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    What did you look for in a program? My state doesn't have a school, so that's not a factor for me. I saw the school rankings, but I'm guessing that probably is a little like med school rankings and...

    Greetings! I'm new here. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintances. I was curious if CRNA schools generally offer scholarships to exceptional students. Is anyone on scholarship or know anyone that...
