science GPA

Can anyone tell me which science classes are being evaluated when applying to CRNA school?
I am looking at these as possibilities on my transcript:

Anatomy
Physiology
Pathophysiology
Pharmacology
Chemistry and Lab
Microbiology
Nutrition (?)


Of course, tons of nursing classes, research, stats, health assessment, etc...but I don't think any of these count in the "science" category.

Just trying to decide what my "real" science gpa is.

Do they include Psych???
Do they include stats?


Thanks!

Laura

The more science the better. No one,on most admission comittees, will look REALLY hard at " Old dead white women courses" AKA nursing theory. One of the most predictable predictors of passing the certification exam is hard science courses.... the MORE science,, the better.

That being said, your entire transcript will be evaluated... but more attention will be paid to the sciences.

Nursing theory classes have NO place in anesthesia school. So no one cares much about those grades.
