    Should I keep applying?

    definitely give up now. kidding. Look. How bad do you want to be a CRNA? This is not an easy road, by any means. If you don't want to take the GRE, don't. Plenty of schools don't require it. You have your CCRN, which many schools require,...

    Help meeeee

    I was almost exactly in your shoes a few years ago. I graduated from SU with my BSN and worked as a new grad ICU nurse at a local hospital in the Seattle area. I didn't want to move far from the Seattle area so I applied to both Gonzaga and OHSU. Whi...

    Shadowing Experience

    I ended up contacting a school I was interested in applying to and they let me shadow in their ORs. It cost me some travel $, but I made it into a mini vacation and it was a great experience.

    Multiple choice. And sorry, I don't remember what specific questions I had, just that they were questions you'd find on the CCRN test.

    Keep getting rejected

    Keiser University CRNA 2020 Applicants

    Last year my questions were all behavioral. They have the written test that was CCRN like questions and then a group interview that dealt with a clinical scenario, and then an essay.

    A rant and a question re: CRNA master’s program

    I hear you. My family stayed in our home, and I moved to go to school-thankfully I am in a master's program. But I will still be 27 mo away from my spouse and kids. Being a CRNA was really what I wanted to do, and thankfully my family is supportive. ...

    A rant and a question re: CRNA master’s program

    I really don't think it is going to affect anything. Most people will just buckle down and do the 3 years if they really want to do NA. I guess it just depends on how bad you want it. I agree with ICU man, cast your net to all the remaining master's ...

    There ARE schools that look more at the whole person, instead of primarily GPA. So you need to find the school that is looking for students like you. all-crna-schools.com has a spreadsheet you can buy, that could be a resource for you. Spend some tim...

    CRNA school with kids

    I think it depends on the support system you have, other than your husband. If you have people willing and able to help out, it's only a little crazy ?

    KPSAN/CSU 2019

    The feedback I received immediately after the interview portion was positive, however I was not offered a spot. There was also a written portion and a group portion. I didn't receive any feedback from those. Overall, the process was fine.

    Midwestern University 2020

    You'll have access to all the required books in digital form, but if you prefer real books, I would recommend buying Nagelhout, Morgan and Mikhail and maybe Stoelting. I do all of my studying, notes etc on the Ipad with notability. -I bought the bigg...
