I just had my first interview at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center Nurse Anesthesia Program. At first, I felt good about the interview; but in hindsight, my answers seem lackluster. The panel seemed nice enough, but my nerves were running so high. So much rides on this one interview. Does anyone know if the academic record and test scores weigh heavier than the interview? If the interview is the deciding factor, then I blew it. Is it adviseable to wait a week or two and drop in on the Director to show her that one-on-one I have more composure? This was my first choice in schools. Let me preface this by saying that I had a 71 on the MAT, 1300/5 on GRE, 4.0 GPA for two years while working full time with two children....CCRN, TNCC, PALS, ACLS and 10 years of nursing with 5 in CCU and I am 31. And yet, I had a perma-grin and could not gather my thoughts to answer their questions fully. I still have 2 more interviews (Charlotte and Raleigh) but Baptist was my 1st choice. Live and learn.
