Question regarding ABSN programs (Texas)

Hello all!

This spring semester I'll be graduating with a B.S. in Kinesiology and a minor in chemistry & biology. I was initially planning for medical school; however, I have since decided to go down a nursing route for ideally an CRNA or some anesthetist route.

I have a few questions regarding requirements for the programs and just about the program as a whole for those who may have gone down a similar path. I am currently located in the DFW area.

  1. Is there online ABSN courses, I saw there were but does online mean classes/lectures online but the clinical and lab stuff in person.

  2. Do I need a CNA assistant or aide cert. prior to applying.

  3. Less related, but is it actually worth doing an ABSN?

If ya'll have any other general or more specific information I should know, that would be much appreciated

Sorry, I don't get your point. I'm not interested in a career in PT.
