Hello to everyone, I am a surgical, trauma, burn nurse who will graduate with her BSN in May. Yeah! I am torn on which way to go with my career though. I know I want to go to grad school, but I am not sure excatly what I want to do. I know I don't want to be a nurse practitioner, I think I would get bored. I have followed a few CRNA's, but I don't think they deal with patients the way I kie to. I know I like to teach other nursing students or other nurses who are orientating to our unit about what critical care nurses do and why we do it. I don't think I would like to teach in the college setting because I like the patient care contact. I really enjoy educating people about the benefits of caring for themsleves through diet, exercise and well-being and finding happiness within yourself. I hope all of this makes sense to whom ever reads this, but I really need some solid advice. My husband is in a CRNA program and is very suportive of what I want to do. I thought I would go to the same program he is in, but the more I get to know myself I don't know if that is the career move for me. Thanks for time and support. Hope to hear from you soon.

what schools allowed a GPA of 2.7? I am wondering because I am thinking of applying to CRNA school and I do not have a GPA of a 3.0. I went and spoke with a graduate advisor today and she was telling me that experience does matter too and during the interview process if you let the board know how hard you have work and how hard you are curretnly woring to get where you are today that is taken into consideration as well. Good Luck!
