    msummar_smc replied to MaleAPRN's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

  14. Recent college grad B.S.- Psych, needs advice.

    msummar_smc replied to B.S.Psych's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    BS Psych, I don't mean to rain on your parade, but I don't think you are cut out to be an MD or CRNA. Let's face it ... a 2.4 in psychology is pretty bad ... worse than a 2.4 in a major such as...
