A couple of my classmates use tablet notebooks. They seem to like them. They come in handy if you recieve electronic copies of your notes because that allows you to add to them. The other added benefit is that you always have you notes with you an...

Clinical sites are decided by the students. A few months after class starts, you will find out how many seats are available at each clinical site and you hash it out with your classmates. Those signed up with the exceptional family member program a...

I wouldn't worry to much about taking another stats class. You will get what you need out of the lecture. I did not have a great background in stats and did fine. The instructor will go above and beyond to make sure you get the information you nee...

I said REDUCED not ELIMINATED. You need to pay attention!:monkeydance:

Congrats on your selection. I will be glad to see the new class come in as we go on to phase II. As everyone else around here says, ENJOY YOUR FAMILY WHIILE YOU CAN. Once school starts your free time is GREATLY reduced. If you still want to be an...

CRNA= Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist

From what I have heard, schools like you to have a higher GRE score not not simply for the purpose of indicating your ability to complete the program, but more so to indicate your ability to pass a standardized test which you will take at the end of ...

At the end of the day it is the score you feel comfortable submitting with your application. If a score just barely over the minimum sits well with you, go ahead and stick with that score. But knowing how competitive it is to get into programs and ...

A good review is the $30 Kaplin book at Barnes and Noble. Between that and www.number2.com , I was able to get a nicw score that helped me get into school. I have highly recommeded it to others and they felt the same and had good results.

Study groups are as effective as you design them to be. When preparing to have one, you have to make a plan and stick to it. First off you have to bring something to the group. You cannot just show up unprepared. Studying on your own beforehand is ex...

Does it come with a removable grill? Was it pimped by Xzibit?

I just started my program on Monday. I'm sure in a couple weeks I will have an interesting answer for you.

SRNA= Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist RRNA= Resident Registered Nurse Anesthetist I have seen SRNA referred to students in the didactic phase and RRNA for students in the clinical portion of their program.

How often do they rank the na programs?

If you really want to get the information from the class but don't want to worry about tests and grades, you may want to audit the class in the fall.

It is not unheard of for someone to be accepted into a program meeting the minimal time for critical care nursing. It will depend upon the program you are applying to and more importantly, the INDIVIDUAL. If you are fortunate enough to meet all the r...

Is this the 2003 rankings or a more recent version?

Glad to see you decided to return. Your input is respected and appreciated.

I will start the Army program next month and I can tell you for certain the course is not waiverable. From what I have been told, it is in your best interest to take biochem prior to starting any CRNA program. I will know for certain very soon.

In addition to using the Kaplan book previously mentioned, I also used the free online website www.number2.com The combination of techniques learned from each source helped me greatly boost my score.

:yeahthat: I took the UNE Distance Biochemistry course also and would recommend it to anyone that needs the course. The instructor is very good about giving you feedback needed in a timely manner. http://faculty.une.edu/com/courses/bionut/distbio/d...
