Starting school tomorrow

[rshores95]

Well, tomorrow is the first day of the rest of my life. Starting classes at FIU for the class of Dec, 2006. I hope it goes well. Anybody else starting as well? Tell me after the first day what it was like and I'll do the same.

LPN student, these are nurse anesthesia graduate students. Undergrad nursing school is hard, but nothing like CRNA school! So don't go thinking these stressed people are nursing students.

I'm jealous of you all, but as I told my husband, I'm not sure if I'm more afraid of getting in or not getting in! But I guess if you want something enough you make it happen, and if I get in I'll muddle through. If I don't get in I'll try again. I already have plans for what to do if I'm unanimously rejected - CCRN, grad school courses, maybe time in SICU. Is that smart or pessimistic thinking?

I've told you this before, and I'm going to tell you again....I know how you feel, I said the same exact things about not getting in, having a plan, CCRN, etc. However, you really don't have anything to worry about, you have a strong application with your grades, scores and experience - if you apply to 2 or 3 schools, you will get in, and then you will do fine. Let me know so I can tell you "I told you so" really, you will get in.

Easy for you to say! Seriously, looking through the archives here I see people who seem as strong as me and took several years to get in. And there was that C+ the second semester of A&P.

I very much hope you get to say "I told you so" in a few months!
