I've recently applied to the HSR CRNA program, and was wondering what the interview is like. Do you have any advice for how to prepare for the interview? What types of questions were you asked? Thanks for your help.

I interviewed for the St. Raphael prgram last year and got in. The interview is nothing to be nervous about at all. First they show you around the OR's and the facility and then you get to meet some of their crna students. You then have an interview with the director of the program, who is by the way really easy going, and then the admissions commitee. They ask you questions like; Why do you want to be a Crna, what does your family think about you becomming a crna-are they supportive of you?, how are you going to finance school, how many hours do you expect to spend each week to study/prep etc, They have also asked some people to describe the actions of various drugs, for you to tell them about a really sick pt you took care of and what the outcome was, what you expect out of the program etc. I didn't find it bad at all and everybody was very nice, I had a good experience. I hope you will make it to the interviews and beyond.
