Best GRE Resources: Top 5 & Bonus!
In this video, I'll show you all the resources I used when studying for my GRE under a crunch timeframe of two weeks! I needed to get a score greater than 300 to be competitive with my CRNA school applications, and believe or not, with these resources I nailed it! I'll tell you which resources I found helpful, the approximate cost, and what I didn't find helpful or worth the investment. If you're under a time constraint too, don't overlook this video! Hopefully it can help you get the score you need too.

Is Day Shift Better than Night Shift?
Просмотров 1163 года назад
Hey nursing friends! I wanted to take some time to lay out a few of the pros and cons of day shift in case you are debating between the two. I've worked both shifts, 7A-7P and 7P-7A, and can honestly say there are amazing benefits to both. While night shift will always hold a special place in my heart, largely because of the coworkers I had the pleasure of working with, I can say that I've grow...

    Hello, I am taking the CCRN exam sooon and I would like to take CMC exam as soon as possible. Do you recommend taking it a month after? I am afraid if I wait for so long to I will forgot CCRN information… which might come handy for CMC. What do you think? How long did you have to wait before you take your CMC?

      Hey Diane! The material for the CCRN would definitely come in handy for the CMC! I wouldn’t wait too long to take that CMC exam for the very reason you mentioned. I waited 3 months to truly study and hone in on the cardio material. After devoting that time to studying, I ended up doing even better on the cmc than the CCRN! Be sure to check out my CCRN and cmc articles on my blog thestudynurse.com for specific information about the exams!

      I ended up interviewing with one school at the time (350+ applied, about 40 interviewed, and about 15-20 selected). I was not offered admission at the time but it was an incredible learning opportunity and experience which I can make a video about. I ended up getting married and starting a family, so my dream is deferred for a little while but not given up on! Good luck with all your CRNA school endeavors!

    Hi Andra, I loved your hack about thiftbooks! I not only got my study books from there, but also some books for leisure too...once my life isn't just studying full time, haha. I do have a bit of testing anxiety though, and was wondering if you could shed some light on how test day was like. Can we bring in earplugs? Pens or pencils? A calculator? I have read some places will give a slip of paper, while some places use a digital notepad?

    • @thestudynurse-andraalyse6431
      @thestudynurse-andraalyse6431 2 года назад

      It’s formatted a lot like the NCLEX exam. I had to lock up my belongings, wasn’t able to bring ANYTHING in the testing room with me, and everything was done on the computer. I did receive a piece of scratch paper and pencil but hardly touched it. You’ll find out your results immediately after submitting (via the testing personnel) and they’ll provide you with a score report.

Love AACN’s practice booklet and NK’s review course (I’m more of a visual/kinesthetic learner). I completely agree with your feedback about her CMC book too. I come from a CVICU background, but that doesn’t mean I’m super confident about the CMC exam lol After your review, I invested in the AACN review course and the CNEA practice question book. I think they’ll be good resources for CRNA interviews. Love your channel!
