  2. need some advice

    ICUDOUCME? replied to mgc's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    You are referring to CRNA school right? I took your post to mean that you are already accepted into a BSN program and will start shortly. Typically, BSN courses run into the 18 to 20 credits range...

    ICUDOUCME? replied to LadyEJ BSN, RN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Thanks Anxious. I wish you all the best. It's hard to work through some of this stuff, especially when you are as young as you are. But there's no time like right now to begin improving your life....

    Evan, I don't know the numbers of applicants or the number interviewed but I do know they were accepting 10 students for this first year. I was interviewed and accepted but chose another school for...

  6. Anyone accepted with small ICU experience?

    ICUDOUCME? replied to manna's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Yes! I was accepted to three programs. I work in a small hospital. It's a 7 bed unit but we see all the same things you do. We don't have open-heart recovery here either, or neuro. I like to think...

  7. Do I have a chance?

    ICUDOUCME? replied to LadyEJ BSN, RN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Dear Anxious, I have been thinking about your post since yesterday. I have had similar problems and I will start at CRNA school this October. I can only speak to my own experience and I don't pretend...

  9. money for Wolford?!

    ICUDOUCME? replied to icurn24's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Congrats on getting an interview. They are very laid back and friendly. They ask the typical..."why CRNA?" and "Tell us about your clinical experience" which means they just want to know if you are...

  11. Interview Question?

    ICUDOUCME? replied to BEN_RN12's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Ben, I struggled with this too because I would practice answering this question in the shower and it sounded so stupid! I would ramble and go on and on about how I wanted to have autonomy because I...

  12. Hey RNbama and Businessman...

    ICUDOUCME? replied to ICUDOUCME?'s topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    So, did you get there after the introduction? Were the interviewers already giving interviews at that time? I confess, I was so nervous, I didn't notice that anyone had come in late. What a...

  13. Advice for shadowing a CRNA

    ICUDOUCME? replied to LIZPICURN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Call a group in your town and ask! I have never been treated unkindly by any CRNAs. On the contrary, in general, they are more than eager to promote the career and give you advice. One day at work, a...

  14. Are you ready to ruuuumble?

    ICUDOUCME? replied to ICUDOUCME?'s topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    To answer a question up a few posts, I am moving to attend Wolford. I'm from Idaho and I will be leaving my family of a husband and two grown children for 28 months to do this thing. My kids each...

    ICUDOUCME? replied to ICUDOUCME?'s topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  16. Anyone invited to interview at Wolford?

    ICUDOUCME? replied to ICUDOUCME?'s topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I told them at the interview that I had a spot at another school (Newman in Kansas) but that I needed to send money to Kansas by the 26th or lose my spot. They said they'd call me as soon as they...

  17. Anyone invited to interview at Wolford?

    ICUDOUCME? posted a topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Hi all, just wondering if anyone has received a letter to interview at Wolford yet. It's been two weeks since their cut off date for applications (Fall '06)and I haven't heard anything. If anyone at...

  18. Anyone invited to interview at Wolford?

    ICUDOUCME? replied to ICUDOUCME?'s topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I don't know but I already wrote them and told them I want to attend. OHSU offered me a spot but I weighed the pros and cons and decided to go with Wolford. Wolford has a philosophy that really...

  21. OHSU interview

    ICUDOUCME? replied to midwestsrna1's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Hi Midwestern, I interviewed there last week. They were all very nice but somewhat unorganized. The office didn't have my GRE score even though I verified that I had it sent to the correct code. I...

    ICUDOUCME? replied to sherry62's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  24. dreading the personal statement

    ICUDOUCME? replied to piper_for_hire's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I agree with gasmn2b. Do exactly what they ask you to do. Just copy/paste the exact wording used by the school for the undertitle to your essay. I usually use a smaller font in italics and put the...

  25. GRE Prep

    ICUDOUCME? replied to SNEMU's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I used Princeton to study for it. They put out a great book. I especially liked the verbal and writing preps in that book. I also worked math problems from the GRE web site and a couple of books at...
