By the way-although you claim Nova doesn’t teach physics-they most definitely do teach physics concepts and principles. I can’t comment on whether or not they teach a formal class because I don’t go there-but I can rest-assure you that they most definitely teach physics in their program. Every program does. None-the-less, I’m glad you are confident in your ability to do well in AA school, in a class, and on a topic that you just bombed as an undergraduate. You have NO idea what AA school is like. So don’t even go there.
There are some people who have gotten into a program with multiple Cs. This is true. But they did not have a D as their final take, in a pre-req, going into graduate school. They also didn’t bomb the Quant section of the GRE. Those people (I happen to know a few) had stellar healthcare experience and did excellent in their GRE/MCATs. They got Cs back as early undergrads. Not right before starting school. And they most definitely didn’t have a D going into AA school. Before you make such claims on other student’s academics in regards to gaining acceptance-maybe you ought to meet some of them and get the real story. What you do is regurg some of the BS you read on this board. BTW-there are A LOT more applicants than there were a few years ago and program admissions are A LOT more competitive. Taking students with sub-par GRE scores and Cs in pre-reqs is NOT the norm-it’s the exception and an anomaly at best.
You think CRNAs don’t learn any physics? Wrong!! They are taught advanced anesthesia physics in CRNA school. The difference is that they are taught in the nursing model and we are taught in the medical model of medicine. That’s…why...were…part…of…MEDICAL SCHOOLS. You are expected to know and understand physics concepts because it is an important part of medicine and an important part of the career of an AA.
You continue to say "let’s pretend..." Let’s say I didn’t take the physics class....Let’s say I went to RT school instead...let’s say I got an accounting degree....let’s say I do well on my next GRE...Let’s say I didn’t get that D. Let’s just pretend all we want that your grade/scores aren’t what they really are. The fact is that you have to correct that D and your GRE and make yourself stand out or you can just keep on pretending all you want.
Lastly, you claim that Im "freaked out" or that I’m gonna get mad if you get an interview. I could give a fcuk about whether or not you get an interview. Go ahead...I’d love to see you interview and get accepted-only to show them that pretty little D you just got. I’m not mad or freaked out because I’m here. I’m in school baby. I’m gonna be in a few short months what you’re tonight dreaming about being. I’m on my way to a great career-a career that you haven’t put in enough effort to afford yourself the position of getting. If you did-you wouldn’t be in the predicament you’re currently in. I’m almost done with school and your sorry ass is checking your e-mail everyday hoping (key word here) that you get an interview invite. Go ahead and tell your interviewer (if you’re so lucky to talk to one) that you just repeated a class and got a D---oh and don’t mind that GRE score… You’re working on it too-kinda-but not until spring…unless you accept me, pretty please =). Sorry but truth can sometimes hurt.
You can respond however you wish-but this is my last post. I’m done wasting my time and effort with trying to help you see that #1 you have to fix that D or you are SOL. #2-You have to do whatever the fcuk you gotta do to make yourself stick out in a good way as an applicant. You just want to argue because I at first constructively criticize you. Well good luck bro. Just go ahead and keep doing what you’re doing and you’re gonna keep getting the results you’ve been getting.
