  6. Paying for your program & living expenses

    MatyIce replied to aprilfresh's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I'm not an expert in this as I have yet to go through it myself. With that said, the students that spoke to me during my interview stated that your disbursement will total $10,250 every 4 months,...

    MatyIce replied to puppies'n kittens's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    JWK, you should reread the posts that you conveniently disregard in your argument. You are wrong. Yes, physicians are very well-trained, but so are nurses. The two disciplines come from very different...

    MatyIce replied to AA012's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  13. Is this job (nurse anesthetist) really as good as Im reading or no?

    MatyIce replied to Zagnonian's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    wbtcrna, I totally agree with you. If you're going to put out information make sure it's correct and not wrong. Whoever said $200,000 yearly for pharmacists wasn't even close. This goes to keeping...

    MatyIce replied to ONE-TWO--'s topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    MatyIce replied to Hedgehog25's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist
