Hi everyone, I have been following this forum for over 7 years now. I was 17 when I had back surgery and met a CRNA. I decided I wanted to pick up this career, went to RN school at a local community college, got a job at a level 1 trauma Surgical/Trauma ICU (1.5 years), got my BSN while working, took O/bio chem, physics, got my CCRN, took my GRE, and literally just turned in my first few apps. I also plan on retaking medical physiology this coming winter.
So....It's been 7 years and I am getting nervous. I keep dwindling and running the numbers in my head. Such as, is my gpa good enough, science gpa, GRE scores. etc. Most of the forums I have been following were from 5-7 years ago, I have not seen any recent posts about getting into CRNA school. I know a lot of it is about the interview and how you do, I was wondering if anyone has advice on the schools I applied to: USC, LLUMC, CSUF, TWU, Gonzaga, Samuel Merritt.
My GPA is not the most competitive: 3.39, GRE 300, science GPA is about a 3.5. I know I shouldn't be worked up about the numbers, but I can't help it. I know I have the capabilities of being top tier in CRNA school, and I have the work ethic of a horse and am pretty quick witted when it comes to patient care, but I'm just so doubtful
This has been a dream of mine since I was 17, so any support would be greatly appreciative.
