My ultimate goal with anesthesia is to provide perioperative care to underserved countries. I actually am in a hurry to graduate. I am 33 years old and got a late start on school. Long story short - I haven't had parents since I was 14 and therefore had to work immediately after high school. Anesthesia requires a doctorate so I am actually in an accelerated nursing program (15 months v. 2 years). As far as the 4.0, that's not going to happen. This program is too hard and many of the people in it who used to get As and high Bs have become low B and C students. I still try to do the best I can, but I know I'll get into anesthesia school without a 4.0.
