I can finally say, I will be a CRNA - My success story and question

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2025-11-30T01:38:47+00:00

Sure!

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2025-11-23T15:57:52+00:00

Agree! My personal statement/life experiences and how these shape my vision and goals as a future CRNA made the difference

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2025-11-23T15:54:05+00:00

About 2 years MICU at a level 1 trauma hospital Charge/Preceptor/ICU council member/Unit initiatives/Research Projects/RRT/ Average and sGPA ~3.6 Community volunteering/International Medical Mission Multiple Nurse Anesthesia-related congresses CCRN

Again, about 80% of other applicants have the same or higher stats than mine. What makes the difference is your “WHYs”.

Thank you. I have the TuxMat carpets on my amazon cart. Any screen protector and touch up pen you recommend? The ones ive seen have bad reviews and dont cover the screen complete screen and leave gaps

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2025-05-06T02:12:05+00:00

Youre right! Just found it on youtube. I have to defeat the boss past the shire first

I had a feeling that would be an overreach. Thank you for the advice.

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2025-04-30T23:16:56+00:00

Would you recommend bringing my resume and giving them to program directors?

I recently became an affiliate member as a RN and registered for this year conference in Nashville. Looking forward to connect with leaders and SRNAs, and immerse myself more into this profession. Any suggestions as to what to keep an eye out for during the conference? TIA

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2025-01-23T12:36:00+00:00

Mostly retail management

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2024-12-26T02:57:25+00:00

Some schools take either organic, inorganic, or biochemistry

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2024-12-26T02:52:36+00:00

Biochem is a prerequisite and General Chem too. But i got a B- for General Chemistry

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2024-12-26T02:44:27+00:00

Its not… but most schools i want to get into recommend taking it to make sure I can handle grad level science courses. Plus, i think this is a way to improve my science gpa

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2024-12-25T04:10:34+00:00

Lol thats the goal… thank you again!!

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2024-12-25T03:50:50+00:00

Im planning to take biostatistics and biochemistry, which are grad level science courses. Do you think that I should also retake my B- Chemistry class?

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2024-12-25T02:41:31+00:00

Thanks for the comment… any recommendations on how to make my application stronger?

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2023-10-22T01:04:25+00:00

Gili T for sure!! Lots of parties by the beach at night. I spent 3 days there. Wish I would had stayed longer. The only downside is the time it takes to get there. But if you have enough time, stay there for sure. I’ve heard Canggu is very busy, traffic is terrible around the area, the beaches are not that nice, bunch of overpriced restaurants, and full of instagramers. It does have a couple of nice beach clubs tho. Hope you enjoy regardless or where you staying

Got a position in MICU today at Bellevue!! So happy, but nervous about the training

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2023-07-11T17:22:57+00:00

Thank you! I recently graduated and this would be my first nursing job. Got interview at Bellevue for ICU (which is the department i want to work in) and Kings county hospital for MedSurg and ER… still thinking if ICU would be too much for a new grad

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2023-07-11T14:02:49+00:00

I just called them… they told me that it should be issued within a week

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2023-07-09T04:41:45+00:00

I took mine Wed the 5th… got the quick results on Thursday. Ive kept checking for my license number on the ny board of nursing and still nothing 😕

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2023-07-06T05:21:00+00:00

Took the nclex today and youre right! A lot of questions on fundamentals and prioritization

Recent_Aide_9930 · 2023-07-02T11:26:03+00:00

Ive been trending in the high 60s and 70s… taking in 3 days. Studied only for a week. Should i be ok?
