ICU/EMTP:

I am thinking of applying to this program, likely for January because I’m behind the power curve for September. I just had a couple questions.

The handbook says you must pass the course with a “B” but does not give a percentage. Do they consider a B as 80% or is it 83%?

Also, do you know their attrition rate for this year and last?

Thank you for any info you can give.

A "B" is an 80. And there is no rounding, so a 79.99 is a "C." I'm not sure about the attrition rates. My class has not lost anyone so far.

2. how do anesthesia drugs affect preload

j.jones4174,

I doubt you will get that question. My crna friends had no idea either!

my interview went well. Lady was very relaxed. Two other guys- one didn’t say a word and the other one asked more clinical stuff about my experience, trouble shooting vent, most difficult patient.

How I handle stress? My Strengths and weakness? Why I want to be a CRNA.

I think I made the cut but who knows ?‍♀️ Good luck to everyone else. I won’t join the fb group until I’m in. Drove through some severe storms on way back to airport.

Will keep ya updated

Does anyone care to share their GRE scores? I’m not gonna lie, mine are far less than the preferred. I’m a HORRIBLE test taker and become riddled with anxiety. Does anyone know how heavily weighted the GRE is in the grand scheme of acceptance?

I have yet to take the GRE, but plan to in August. My colleague got the bare minimum in every category on the GRE (297 cumulative) and was offered an interview. Also, I remember seeing another forum member say they scored below the preferred, got an interview, then asked to retake the test and do better and they did. Not sure if they were accepted or not.
