Hey! I know this is an old video, but what has been the best approach to studying in CRNA school for you? I’m starting soon and I’m nervous, been out of school for a bit.
It took me a while to get into the swing of things when I first started. I stumbled a ton in the beginning. Made a schedule and tried to stick to it and a bunch of checklists. Each semester got easier and easier once you get comfortable being a student again. Recording the lectures helped me soooooo much! I would listen to them several times before the exams. Hope this helps!
Hey, loved the vibe🙌! I'm not really sure if it is the best time to ask but, I was wondering if I could help you create a better distribution by working on post-production like better storytelling through Edits, Keywords, think catchy intros and outros, or even some engaging short clips! Would love to chat if you're interested and keep creating good content:)
Hey Jeena, I’m a subscriber and wanted to let you know I found your channel when I was prepping for crna school interviews. I had 2 interviews! One was a couple weeks ago which I haven’t heard back from yet, and the other that I interviewed this past Thursday notified me on Saturday that I’m accepted starting next year! So thank you for your tips and advice and I will continue to follow along your journey to hopefully help me in school also. Congrats on all your hard work!
My program is DNAP. They are both clinical based degrees, but it is because the program is offered from a school that is not under a specific “school of nursing”. Technically it can be considered a non-terminal degree. This website has a little blurb about the difference if you care to read it over. thecrna.com/dnap-vs-dnp-understanding-the-difference/
Hi, I've been following your videos for a long time. You're pretty brave for doing these videos while in CRNA school, so thank you for taking the time to do these and sharing your experience with us.🙏😎 I'm looking for schools that accept the last 60 hr credits. I believe you mentioned awhile back that your school accepted the last 60 hrs. Which school do you attend for your CRNA program, if you don't mind? And is the GRE required? I would love to learn more about it. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing the trials and tribulations, helps to really give perspective in the whole process. End result looks amazing so you did a fantastic job
On average how many papers do you think you had to write each semester and how long were they? I know it should be the least of my worries, but I hate and suck at writing papers so a doctorate program makes me nervous in that regard lol.
why would you add that ICU experience in the total amount of time to become a CRNA? for medical school and AA school, having healthcare experience is a critical part of the application, for which, students take a gap year to gain healthcare experience. this can easily be a year or two. we don't add this to the total amount of training. it does not seem to be a very fair comparison in that regard. my opinion is that all types of healthcare experience are essential for provider roles.
That’s how they get you. They tell you to take a different position for a year and transfer.. but not telling you that there are no guarantees that there would be a spot for you in the icu. I’m happy you found another way. This is inspiring!
Hi, after watching your journey video, I felt like we are in similar shoes. I too did hit couple bumps on the road. I chose like 2-3 majors right out of high school, couldn’t figured out what I wanted to do. I ended up choosing Biology major, taking those difficult courses while working overnights at my job full time and that led to bad grades and dropped my GPA significantly, I’d say I had a pretty bad chem teacher (but these are just excuses) I ran out of financial aid. I obtained my associate in biology and on my third yr of biology I figured I wouldn’t be able to do much with the degree so I went for nursing (2yrs degree) right now I will graduate this May and got an offered from two hospitals, the Rochester one offered me way better deals with benefits and higher pay with sign on bonus but even tho Albany med did not offer me little, they do have connection with CRNA/NP program there and I am willing to sacrifice that to reach my goal. At the moment I’m conflicted and just don’t know if my goal is realistic. I watched your journey video and your perseverance definitely gives me hopes. I’m just discouraged right now because I heard from my interviewer(Albany med) they’re switching the program into a 4 yr doctorate. Chem, bio, physics, math are not my strongest either but I’m willing to retake the courses if needs to be. Any advice or suggestions on the steps I could take?
Unfortunately many people forget where they came from. Everyone at some point was totally lost, but some people, the moment they catch on, totally forget about how they didn’t know what they were doing just the week before and they act like they can’t relate.
@@jeenaalexandrasrna I’m not even in nursing school yet but i know i want to be a crna, and your videos are a huge help in preparing me mentally for what is to come. I am mostly worried that I won’t be able to keep up with the amount of material in such a short period of time, so i already downloaded a few of the textbooks i have seen other srna’s mention they have for classes. I’m slowly teaching myself the concepts of anesthesia. If you have any recommendations on which textbooks would give me a good foundational knowledge of anesthesia that would be great!
you can move the notes and highlights with the lasso select though. (just adding because it sounded as if when you accidentally move the slide then everything will be messed up and one has to just deal with it.) hopefully Microsoft will implement the possibility to group slides and notes to move them together if one gets moved accidentally. or to lock the slides where they are.
It’s been wonderful to see your growth and improved self esteem. The video was very fluent but Mr. Cooper and Dobby were a bit distracting to me but that’s cuz I know them. Lol
You are handling things much better than you think. You have excellent interpersonal skills and fine motor coordination. You have a humble heart but I know you will get through this in no time. I’m very proud of you always. Take care of yourself! Love you
Thank you so much for this video. I really needed to hear those words. 🙏 This topic was truly an answer to my prayer. Thank you for being amazing and taking the time to make these videos. You are inspiring so many of us to press forward with faith and follow our dreams. Much success in all your endeavors and God bless!!
At what point did it start feeling overwhelming? Was it at the beginning of those 6 months you were gone? Don’t worry it’ll go by quick!! Wish you the best ❤
Hey gurl heyyyyyyy! Just dropping by to let you know we’re thinking of you and rooting for you! Sending you wishes for joy and peace during this holiday season! Take care!🤶🏻🌴❤️
Awwww thank you so much!! I am hoping I get the opportunity to film some videos in the upcoming winter break to update you all on my CRNA school journey. I’ve been so busy with full time clinical. Thank you so much for the comment and holiday wishes! Blessings to you during this holiday season!!! ❤️🤍❤️
@@jeenaalexandrasrna tysm! So happy to hear clinical got you busy and I hope you squeeze in a little holiday vacay! No pressure, but maybe sprinkle some quick tips for clinicals Shorts here n there? That would be super cool 🤗
I love the anesthesia profession. Whether AA, CRNA or MD. I’m really curious as to what they teach in anesthesia school because every time I take a nitric oxide patient to the OR not only do I have to give DOCTORS and CRNAs a crash course in nitric I gotta be on standby if they have questions and I’m really curious as to why anesthesia is not educated on specialty gases.
