   cnmtocrna replied to willti1's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

   A friend of mine interviewed there last year. She said there were very few clinical questions if any, and that it was a get to know you kind of interview. I think they asked her what the last book...

2. Early Decision Schools

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

   If I am not mistaken, Samuel Merritt College in Oakland, CA offers early admission for students with high GPA/test scores. They allow some students to complete the non-clinical courses ahead of time...

3. Stupid Question

   cnmtocrna replied to SleepyRN2B's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

   Not that someone didn't already say this, but....the feeling you got was nothing but a normal human reaction. I do believe that the terrorists are getting what they want when people watch and have...

4. Difficulty in the CCU

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

   I have recently been there and done that - from midwife to icu nurse in a MSICU. It had been 14 years since graduating from undergrad program, and I felt very out of touch with bedside nursing in...

5. SRNAs, How important is GPA vs Standard Test for the application?

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

   I for one can attest to the fact that you have expressed more doubts than you have expressed exuberant self-confidence. Your test scores are in the stratosphere, I think some people may be a little...

6. Starting school tomorrow

   cnmtocrna replied to rshores95's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

   I've told you this before, and I'm going to tell you again....I know how you feel, I said the same exact things about not getting in, having a plan, CCRN, etc. However, you really don't have anything...

7. When to apply?

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

   I also got accepted with less than a year in the ICU. I had 10 months at the time of my interview, and I will have completed 14 months at matriculation. I think each program is a little different,...

8. Essay

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

   Well, if they don't ask for GREs, then I guess they really can't even consider your score when comparing you with other applicants. So, it can't hurt to throw them in the envelope....Hmmmm....that's...

9. Essay

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

   I just have to say....with your GRE score you will have little trouble getting accepted. I know scores aren't everything, but when they are that high they make you stand out as an applicant. My...

10. Essay

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

    I recently completed my essay for my application (I was accepted), I sure empathize with you...it is agonizing. In my own experience with writing I have found that doing it in stages and having...

11. Here's what AAs really think of CRNAs

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

    You have taken my reference to greed out of context. I was refering specifically to the issues between CRNAs and AAs. In Atlanta many CRNAs feel that the AAs have depressed the salaries. I'm not...

12. Here's what AAs really think of CRNAs

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

    In reference to my recent post under "washington DC CRNAs," I will direct everyone's attention to the blatant GREED factor underlying this post. This post is also misleading. The hospitals here in...

13. Washington, D.C. CRNAS

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

    Would everyone please take a moment and get over yourselves!!! I am in Atlanta, there are AAs and CRNAs working beside each other every day. There are plenty of jobs. I have personally worked with...

14. Pregnant

    cnmtocrna replied to Heather R.N.'s topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Well, when I was in midwifery school a couple of women had babies along the way. In some ways school may be more flexible than a job when it comes to working around a pregnancy, delivery, recovery....

15. CRNA Contracts

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

    u-r-sleepy - u-r-right too. No question about it in my opinion. I am a midwife, currently working as an ICU nurse (loving it) and planning to go to CRNA school in 2005. I worked as a midwife for 11...
