  2. Value of acceptance to a nondoctorate crna program

    Screen name replied to Blueskies149's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    CRNAs need to get out of the OR. The best combo would be to get a doctorate and MBA. Then run that **** and call the shots. Take that desk spot away from the MDA as well as the stool in the

  6. Steps to become a CRNA?

  7. Steps to become a CRNA?

    Screen name replied to Rectaltylenol's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I believe it is all relative. It may be a different type of stress, but stressful all the same. CEO's, CRNA's, PharmD's, Accountants and Realtors all have perceived work stresses, but to say one is...

  8. Steps to become a CRNA?

    Screen name replied to Rectaltylenol's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    My sister is a PharmD. Her pay continues to rise as CRNAs are stagnant or declining (in many areas). Her vacation time and benefits are better throughout her job changes (chain store to private to...

  9. Part-time opportunities for CRNA's?

    Screen name replied to allusernamesgone's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    If the top is 160, why is there a new grad job in Kansas posted for 170? Don't be one of those that sells yourself short. Taking these low paying jobs don't help anything. You do realize you do the...

  10. Part-time opportunities for CRNA's?

    Screen name replied to allusernamesgone's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Salaries and jobs have been declining for a few years now. Benefits are decreasing. Two new grads just took full time jobs in hospitals at 100,000. Might as well keep your ICU job and work 3 days a...

  11. TCU CRNA program for January 2015

    Screen name replied to Frogs25's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  12. Recommendation Letter after only 1 year?

    Screen name replied to ONE-TWO--'s topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Something to think about: Asking for letters puts you on the radar and they know what you're up to. If you don't get in, you could be treated differently by manager and other references. I just saw...

  13. Am I screwed?

    Screen name replied to llamadan's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    You have a lot of proving yourself to do. I would probably go the extra mile... take graduate classes, or even complete a graduate program (we have a couple NP > SRNA's in my class) to show you can...

  14. I am sorry for the multitude of stat evaluation threads!

    Screen name replied to ngerste's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Upon completion of Organic Chem, GRE writing and CCRN, you'll exceed the minimum requirements. This means interviewing with at least one school. Acceptance, as you touched on, is dependent on your...

  15. Yes, another question about CRNA pay?

    Screen name replied to wannabanrnin2012's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    The same people fighting for the salary are the same people fighting for your work conditions. Job satisfaction can drop just as easy as pay. Support the

  16. Should I apply now or wait?

    Screen name replied to Sponges's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Sorry. You look average. Your GPA is 'satisfactory' with a lot of questionable occurrences. This is not to say people have gotten in with lower grades, but a 3.4 alone will not make you stand out....

  17. Debt vs. Future Income analysis, my realistic financial situation

    Screen name replied to SIguy_RN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I think you are planning accordingly. Larger cities in Texas are starting at 115-120 pretty consistent. Not sure if rural is better or not. In the long run it should be beneficial. You should remember...

  18. Denied by patient

    Screen name replied to kemo1121's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    If they don't want a CRNA, then I guess give them a MDA and AA. Have a good sleep.

  19. CRNA job outlook in AZ

    Screen name replied to kemo1121's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  21. Question about GPA for those with a previous degree

    Screen name replied to felixlechat22's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    They will look at everything. I would get as many "A's" in nursing school as possible. I wouldn't worry about it until you are finished with nursing school. Focus on one thing at a time and that is...

  22. Advice to Improve

    Screen name replied to callisto1013's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I wouldn't waste time trying to improve anything. You meet, or exceed, the requirements for most schools. You might have some 'splaining to do about the 3.0 science GPA, but don't feel this would keep...

  23. How do CRNAs get treated by MDAs ?

    Screen name replied to april_tomorrow's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

  25. How do I choose a CRNA program right for me

    Screen name replied to Emililililily's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    You want to know if your practice or experience will be restricted in a certain area. Look to see if the state is "CRNA friendly". Then look at schools clinical sites. You can search to see if you...
