  1. may you help me

    CABGx4, that is a pretty rude response. To the OP: there are many discussions on here about the requirements for CRNA school. Maybe start by reading them, researching on Google, and posting again with...
  2. It might help your GPA if you improved your spelling. I recognize this is a forum and not a classroom, but getting into a good habit of spelling things correctly will help you in school. (Yes, it has...
  3. I have the same thoughts and fears as the OP. Ideally, I would like to stay in the area for a couple years after school is done (put down roots, get some intense Level 1 Trauma Center experience, etc)...
  4. I agree with the above posters, honesty is the best policy. You will hurt yourself more by not sending in all the required transcripts. On the up side, some schools will allow you to submit an...
  5. paying for CRNA school

    premaseeker-Do you have any more information on the job market in the Twin Cities? I have been accepted to MSA, start in August, and I'm hoping to be able to work in the area for a couple years after...
  6. Since you don't (and I'm assuming have never) worked in an ICU, it's going to be hard for you to compare your OR experience to what it's like in the ICU. Just because you know the tools does not mean...
  7. First job out of CRNA school

    Maybe you would get some responses if you moved this post to the CRNA or SRNA forum. However, I'm not sure how to do
  8. To the OP: I hope you have learned an important lesson, do a little digging before blinding posting questions. Five minutes of searching "CRNA" on google and you would have found that the minimum ICU...
  9. I was accepted to a program with a BSN GPA: 3.45 and a science GPA: 3.82. Now, I took upper level undergrad science classes after my BSN, so the GPA of my last 60 credits showed improvement. If you...
  10. In addition, not all schools will have switched to a doctorate level program by 2015. Schools that are not associated with a school of nursing have until 2025 to
  11. OP, have things gotten better? You began this thread a month ago, have you taken any advice given on the topic and how did it work? Hope things are
  12. If you are truly unable to let it go, I think an option is to call the school and let them know students are stealing tests, so that it can be prevented in the future. But I agree that there is...
  13. I was just accepted to a CRNA program, my BSN GPA: 3.45, science GPA: 3.82, and the program didn't require the GRE. When I interviewed, they mentioned that they liked I had taken upper level classes...

  15. Average age of SRNA?

    I will be starting school in August 2012 at the age of 27, and finish right before my 30th birthday. At least I will still be 29 when I graduate!
  16. norcla- I also work at St. Mary's! I'm in SICU, which ICU do you work in? Any thoughts on when you will be moving to the Cities? It would be nice to go casual in July and enjoy my summer, then move in...
  17. My acceptance letter arrived in the mail today, so excited! The wait over the long weekend was torture though. Congrats to everyone who got in, I can't wait to meet you all in August. I'm sorry to...
  18. I feel like that statement is judgmental and not productive to this discussion. If you have nothing constructive to add, please keep those comments to yourself. Bullying is unacceptable, yet it...
  19. Hi Everyone, Good luck to those who have interviews, I'm interviewing as well on December 14th. Does anyone know if the school has a waiting list and how many people from the wait list started the...
