I just interviewed today and all I have to say is thank goodness that is over.  It felt more like an interrogation than an interview.  I was drilled with numerous clinical questions and only a few personal questions.  At one point a comment by one of the interviewers was, "you're giving answers a nurse would give, not someone in anesthesia."  Definitely caught me off guard.  Clearly I am a nurse and not in anesthesia, isn't that why we are talking now?  So I can hopefully go to anesthesia school.  Unfortunately, I didn't get a great vibe from the interview whatsoever.  It was a very belittling and confrontational experience for me.   

I'm almost certain I won't get an acceptance letter so all the more power and good luck to the others that interviewed today!  Hope you all have/had a better experience than me!

Same with the clinical questions. Like I was giving nursing considerations and they wanted mechanism of action and pathophysiology

I got clinical questions mostly from one person right off the bat. I felt like I had an answer for all of their questions but still don't feel confident. Best of luck to us 3 that interviewed. I'll update in a week

Hey guys! Submitted by application on 10/28, waiting to hear back.

Anyone else in the same boat?

I submitted my application around that time but I didn’t submit GRE scores.  I didn’t do well so I’m not sure if I should even submit them.

I've heard that they've accepted people and have asked them to retake scores before entrance into the program. So you never know!

Hey everyone!

I'm currently in my second semester of the program, class of 2023! I understand the stress of being accepted with stipulations! If anyone has any questions just let me know!
