I had my interview yesterday morning at 910am. They said that this was the first day of interviews. Also, for every spot, they would interview 2-3 people. It was very informal. Lasted about 15 minutes. Asked why I wanted to be a CRNA, about my shadowing experience, why I should be chosen as a student, and what I do for relaxation. It was a panel of 8 or 9 people. I just was friendly and confident and they seemed like they liked me. Told it could be 2 wks or after january before I find out. I hope soon though :) Good luck.

Congrats on having the interview out of the way. Rumor has it that if they ask the kind of questions they asked you, that means you're in! I hope that holds true for you and I hope you find out soon!!!

This time is super anxiety producing! The waiting for the call is really tough.. then waiting to get a letter is so much worse, but it is all worth it! I would love to welcome you both next year!! Hang in there and take a deep breath!:yeah:

Just play it cool :) CONFIDENT! Try to hide your nervousness. They didn't ask me a single clinical question. Just wanted to know about my background (a little), the cases I observed, the CRNA's name I followed, what I did to relax, and why I would be good for the program. It only lasted 10 minutes or so. Get there early so you have time to park and find your way. You made it this far....You will be great!
