Definitely don't retake the GRE -- that's a great score. I would say your weakest point is your lack of adult critical care experience. Most schools I looked at wanted adult ICU. Apply now, but if you don't get in, you should probably get into an adult unit. You might also want to take a couple grad classes to get them out of the way and to show them that you can earn A's in grad school.

usually the writing score is a *recommendation, so I wouldn't worry about it. I'd go Adult ICU, preferably CVTICU.

thanks for your insight, that's exactly what I need to do.

I would apply and see what happens!! I know people who have gotten in to CRNA school with PICU experience, and they are doing fine.

University of Cincinnati accepts PICU nurses into their CRNA program. I can't remember the exact number, but I want to say it's 2-4 a year. And your stats are good. Their app deadline is Oct. 1, Interviews in early Nov., and they usually have their decisions made by Thanksgiving. Hope this helps.
