CRNA School Advice and Info! Will I make it?

Published

Hello CRNA students/graduates....

I live in the Tampa Bay FL area and I am 20 years old. I just got accepted into a 2 yr RN program. After I graduate my plans are to go to USF and get my bachelors, and then work a couple yrs and apply for CRNA programs. This is my dream! I have been wanting so badly to become a CRNA... but I'm worried about my grades! Here is a brief overview...

So far my overall GPA is a 3.7

My Pre-req GPA to apply to the nursing program was a 3.57

(I had a "B" in Anatomy II and a "C" in Microbiology)

I am now taking a few more classes and am so worried I will get a "C" in Statistics even though I am pushing for a "B"

This stresses me out because I know that a lot of CRNA programs have Statistics listed as a pre-req. It doesn't seem that they calculate a pre-req GPA for admission... Just your sciences and overall right? And some mainly look at like your last 60 hrs or so??

I just need to know if any of you out there ever had "C"s in anything before getting into a CRNA program and what happened?? Should I be worried??

All of my other grades so far are "A"s (accept intermediate algebra which was a "B")

I am looking for as much info/advice as I can get! I want to be prepared and hopefully get accepted ASAP after I get my experience in.

Also, what schools are the easiest/hardest to get into? Please also give me an overview of your grades and GPA's if you were accepted/denied....

Thank you so much everyone! I really appreciate it :)
