  1. volunteering

    Summitk2 replied to wannabFNP's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I volunteered over 400 hours in an ER and a PACU prior to starting nursing school. Although I was interested in anesthesia, the exposure to the nurses was far more valuable. In my opinion, you...

  2. Clinical Topics

    Summitk2 replied to yoga crna's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I agree there's not enough clinical dialogue in this forum. However, it's hard to deter the wannabe's. People who are interested in anesthesia (count me in) are going to pursue whatever information...

  3. Direct-entry MSN programs

    Summitk2 replied to elizabells's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Izzy, Arlington is on the opposite side of DC, so it's around 1.5-2 hrs in "normal" traffic. Bethesda is closer, but still about 1 hour from Baltimore. If you want to be in the DC area, I would...

  4. Direct-entry MSN programs

    Summitk2 replied to elizabells's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Hi Janony, I'm in the 13.5 month accelerated program at Hopkins. I'm not going on to the MSN portion, but right now we're all together until we become RNs. This portion of the program is the only...

  5. Applying to UW BSN program this yr-any tips?

    Summitk2 replied to radbird's topic in Washington Nursing

    I applied to UW's BSN twice and was denied both times. They appreciate ethnic diversity, so this might be good for you or it might be bad. They also love community service, so this is good for you....

  6. How competitive is it to get into a nursing school?

    Summitk2 replied to sunnyday1's topic in Washington Nursing

    I'm wondering if there are other repeat-applicants to UW who are again licking their wounds of rejection right now (?) I was bummed but also invigorated last year after being rejected by UW. I knew I...

  7. UMD Accelerated BSN program now is Clinical Nurse Leader Program

    Summitk2 replied to TLR03's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I also just received my acceptance letter after applying to the accelerated BSN program. I was also surprised, especially after hearing so many great things about their accelerated program... why nix...

  8. How do you feel about ADN nurses?

    Summitk2 replied to Stacy W's topic in Nursing Career

    I agree about the rude comments, Kenni... even the comments that aren't rude are very divisive (e.g. "we are the champions" [adns]). However, it's hard to unify such a huge population of people from...

  9. Need scholarships

    Summitk2 replied to WhatToDo's topic in General Students

    I'm starting the same program in June at Hopkins and I'm a little nervous about the costs too... And like you, I've run into a lot of dead-ends when searching for scholarships, especially for...

  10. How competitive is it to get into a nursing school?

    Summitk2 replied to sunnyday1's topic in Washington Nursing

    Unfortunately, there isn't 1 single characteristic to focus on. To be competitive (which it is here in the Seattle area), you need to have everything and you need to be strong in everything. You...
