  1. Who's going to Anesthesia school?

    Class2011 replied to jrec's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I think you need to be persistent as well. If this is what you want to do, you will eventually get excepted somewhere. Every single program turns away qualified applicants, so there is no reason to...

  2. I have never gotten great grades, CRNA out of the Q?

    Class2011 replied to raindrop's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    People's idea of "stink" is often subjective, so it's hard to say. I think A's in the hard science classes can make up for all kinds of poor grades in nursing theory type classes (as long as you are...

  3. information about crna, reliable information please

    Class2011 replied to chelseaxlove's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    27 is plenty young, but life is short. So it's all about what you want to do with your time on the planet. God willing, you're gonna get old

  4. CRNA profession saturation and new graduate CRNA?

    Class2011 replied to aukewus's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I've recently seen a little upward movement in CRNA pay in my area. They don't do that for

  5. Any advice for a prospective SRNA?

    Class2011 replied to MB37's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I think you can trust that if a school doesn't require a course, then you don't need it to get in or to succeed in the program. But if you are looking for something to take for any number of valid...

  6. NMBAs with LMAs

    Class2011 replied to putmetosleep's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    So why do people say

  7. Removing barriers to admission!

    Class2011 replied to cookderosa's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    (for example, I can't imagine organic chemistry gets EASIER the longer I have been away from general chem lol!!) You'd be surprised then. As they are taught, organic and general have very little...

  8. Any advice for a prospective SRNA?

    Class2011 replied to MB37's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    A strong undergrad organic chemistry was necessary for my program and helped a lot. Beyond that, I would just review anatomy and physiology as much as you can. Or maybe you can audit a course for...

  9. information about crna, reliable information please

    Class2011 replied to chelseaxlove's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I may not have much of a life now, I just studied my bum off all weekend for an exam today and another one tomorrow. But I sure hope, and do expect to have a full life once I'm done and start...

  10. Which GPA is more important (ADN or BSN)

    Class2011 replied to RN789's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Generally yes, but programs can add however they want and some may not look at just the last 60 credits. For specifics, you have to contact each

  11. Which GPA is more important (ADN or BSN)

    Class2011 replied to RN789's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Yup, I've got nearly two years to go and I already can't wait to

  12. Which GPA is more important (ADN or BSN)

    Class2011 replied to RN789's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I think your most recent 60 credits and all science courses are most important. If they don't look good, then you might consider taking a few science courses to beef up your application. If they...

  13. MDA/Intern response to CRNA policy

    Class2011 posted a topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    somewhat regrettably, i found this thread from an anesthesiologist/intern forum. i'm not surprised by their position at all, but their vehemence and disdain is shocking. it seems they are all about...

  14. CRNAs and bathroom breaks...

    Class2011 replied to feelnopain's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I can only speak as a student and then in my nursing experience. I've never had a problem getting someone to cover my patients for just the few minutes it takes to use the bathroom. You do need to...

  15. I'm in at case western 2010!!! Anyone else??

    Class2011 replied to SCVICURN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I suppose everyone is a little bias toward their own experience. Mine is a midsize, level one, teaching facility. It seems to me that as the hospitals get bigger, the icu's get more specialized and...

  16. Anyone attended previous Nurse anesthesia school and withdrawn

    Class2011 replied to suarc's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I'd be interested in the facts of the case. Does a public document

  17. PICU

    Class2011 replied to RNYC's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Any science courses that you did well in will look good on your application. I think most schools will want you to have a semester of organic chemistry too. No doubt schools prefer adult icu's over...

  18. What is pimping?

    Class2011 replied to SICUTOCRNA's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Viewed more positively and when done with all the right intentions, it is the time honored Socratic Method of teaching by

  19. Good Experience for CRNA School

    Class2011 replied to CCURN87's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Sounds like it would work to me. Just that if most of their patients are vented and you are using pressers like neo, I would expect you to get more than the occasional cvp and a-line--they should...
