  5. TWU CRNA 2018

    I had an in person interview. It was short and to the point. It was intense only because I was so nervous and wanting to do well. I was told to study CCRN questions. I did, but the questions were not...

  16. Need some reassurance

    Hi, I have similar stats. 10+ years RN experience, 3.4 GPA, CCRN, 6 years ICU, GRE score was decent. I have a few bad grades bringing down my GPA, but unfortunately they are in science courses. I...

    Hi, I am the mother of a 10 month old and applying to start CRNA school (babe will be a year and a half when I start.) Based on your experience I would probably encourage you to start CRNA school...

    I'm so jealous of your stats! I think your first GPA is no problem since you've more than made up for it
  25. TWU CRNA 2018

    If only we could - I would surely trade...a high GPA is more impressive than a better GRE. At least I've
