Updated:   Published

Hi everyone!

I applied to the 2024 cohort. Starting the thread early and eagerly awaiting to hear back about an interview. Anyone else apply?!

Specializes in Cvicu.

They offered me a spot at the end of my interview today! They have 25 openings. Interview was straightforward so don't freak out. 

Specializes in SICU/MICU.

Congratulations! Any tips? Did you get any clinical questions?

Did anyone who interview get clinical questions and did they do the critical thinking exam this year? Insights people please! Congrats on everyone who was accepted. 

No clinical questions. All personal. No critical thinking exam. I highly encourage you to read the FAQ pages for the new applicants and unsuccessful applicant.

Good luck everyone!

I think the same as last. Roughly 100; accepting 25. 7 have already been accepted that we know of (on here) with another day of interviewing. Feeling slightly discouraged now. Please keep your fingers crossed for the rest of us.

You're right, you're right! Thank you for the words of encouragement. I may have to pick your brain later depending on the outcome! Congrats again everyone who has gotten acceptances! You got this!!

I know how you feel. They told me at the end of the interview that they will get back to me in 7days. So I'm still praying I'll make the cut. Good luck to both of us!!!

ER nurses for the win my dude! They definitely love pre-hospital and ED experience at National as we think completely differently, have peds/OB/diverse patient exposure and many have lots of airway experiences. Anyone who thinks ED experience isn't good enough is wack! See you in January!
