No I'm from Texas (Houston area 4th largest city in the U.S.). I'm currently working on my B.S.H. ( Bachelor's of Science degree in Health/Science) then I'm applying to AA-C program.
Still have ways to go before applying to AA-C school, I function as an Anesthesia Technician level II which has helped ne tremendously with my education and skills in Anesthesia.
My next goal is to obtain my Certification as an Cer.A.T. and ACLS/PALS Certification with in the next 3-6 months.
I wish you all the best in AA-C school you will do fine just believe in yourself. All things are possible
