  1. Can you complete a Chemistry minor at the same time as a BSN?

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to dinobiceps's topic in School, College Programs

    You can get a minor if you want. For med school you'll also need to take physics which is not part of nursing. You can always take those classes as electives. You will likely be taking more credits...

  2. How To Get Shadowing Experience

    HopefulSRNA1234 posted a topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Does anyone have any tips on how I can shadow a CRNA? I don't know any personally and just started working at a new hospital so my contacts are limited. Is it appropriate to just go to the department...

  4. CRNA- ICU experience

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to sophie<3's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Wow you're quite nasty in tone. Anyways, I'm not sure what is confusing you. Per Albany, they do rank ICUs in order of preference. Per SUNY downstate, they do NOT accept neuro. Not all ICUs are...

  5. CRNA- ICU experience

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to sophie<3's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    So this is straight from Albany's website: "in order of preference, include the following: Surgical Intensive Care, Post-Open Heart, Coronary Care, Medical Intensive Care, Post-Anesthesia, and...

  6. CRNA- ICU experience

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to sophie<3's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    How can you say this when there are schools that don't accept neuro or say it is last on their list? I work neuro now and am switching because of this. It is very school dependent and yes, to some...

  7. CRNA- ICU experience

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to sophie<3's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    It may depend on the school. In the Tristate area we have some schools that don't accept neuro icu experience and others that actually state it is last on the

  8. SUNY Downstate CRNA Program

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to HopefulSRNA1234's topic in New York Nursing

    Too bad. I'm guessing columbia will get even more competitive

  9. SUNY Downstate CRNA Program

    HopefulSRNA1234 posted a topic in New York Nursing

    I've heard rumors that this school either will close or not get re-accredited. I noticed the school only received two year accreditation, ending in 2017. Does anyone know anything about this or if...

  10. Confused over two questions I need to answer in my job interview.

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to Rie26's topic in General Nursing

    Hmmm. I kinda thought the second one would have to focus on researching reasons why the unit may not be meeting standard, then developing policy, and then implementing. How would you know what...

  12. Concept of anesthesia

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to Lindsy01's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I think the poster is just asking for help understanding the question, not asking for the answer. I think the term "concept of anesthesia" is a little awkward. If I were to guess, I'd assume they are...

  13. Why or why not CRNA?

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to AlrightMike's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Where are you getting this from? Pay is 150-180 starting as far as I know (on the higher end in rural areas) and all schools I've checked out in metropolitan areas have a 100% employment rate after...

  14. Why or why not CRNA?

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to AlrightMike's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    To actually answer your question, I can tell you why I choose nursing/CRNA (applying this year). I love biology, physiology, pharmacology and medicine. I love working with patients. Healthcare is...

  15. Why or why not CRNA?

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to AlrightMike's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    You're just in high school so I find it impressive that you're taking the time to research career prospects and thinking about what's important to you. Salary is certainly important and don't let...

  16. NYC - yeah, why not?

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to raindrop's topic in New York Nursing

    Also, taxes are crazy here and there's an additional city tax that is quite a lot. I don't know where you're coming from but I can say that living in NYC is much more expensive than other places, not...

  17. NYC - yeah, why not?

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to raindrop's topic in New York Nursing

    I can say that with a couple years experience you're looking at 45-50/hr (depending where you go) base and then more for nights. That's for full time. Obviously per diem is more. I don't know how much...

    It doesn't matter what you get your associates in but you'll have to take the science (and other) prereqs. You actually don't have to get an associates to apply to transfer for a bsn. Just look at...

  20. Getting into NYU ABSN with lower gpa than average accepted student

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to macetheace04's topic in New York Nursing

    NYU does have a monstrous class size compared to other schools but it's not fair to assume the OP needs hand holding just based on prior GPA. There may be other factors that contributed to the low...

  21. Temporary work in NYC

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to cheesepizza's topic in New York Nursing

    You'll definitely able to sign up for flu clinics (giving flu shots) around that time. Not the best if you're looking to make stable plans to budget your finances but great for PRN work. There are...

  22. Getting into NYU ABSN with lower gpa than average accepted student

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to macetheace04's topic in New York Nursing

    I got into Stony Brook with a 2.9 cumulative (2.49 in first bachelors). It was the only school I applied to. I did take over 30 credits since my first bachelors with a 4.0 GPA and 4.0 in

  25. Hunter's or NYU's Accelerated second degree nursing programs

    HopefulSRNA1234 replied to Pm92's topic in New York Nursing

    Completely agree with above. But don't get your hopes down. If I were you I'd apply to state schools (stony, Bing, etc) and see what happens. Moral of the story: nursing isn't as easy to get into as...
