I would start off by reading the 'sticky' thread at the top of this forum called "How to be a CRNA FAQ" (or something like that). It will answer a lot of your questions. You are likely to get a better response if you aren't asking general questions...
No, it has to be ICU. Check with the school you're interested to be sure, but you won't get the experience with vents, drips or other equipment in an intermediate care unit that you will in ICU.

Congratulations! I'm not taking classes now, but I plan to take pathophys and physiology in the winter. Are you guys from the Chicago area? Do you work around here?

What?! I'm assuming they calculated it higher than it really was? That sucks. The admissions committee met yesterday, so now I'm (im)patiently waiting for a letter. Sorry that happened to you!

I know someone on another board has already received a date for an interview. I'm still running to the mailbox every day. When I emailed a couple of weeks ago, they said interviews were from October to February.
