Mine was from Sharlotte Crawford

I got it at 3:56, hopefully that means you're in! í ½í¸€ thanks, I'm really sad and it stings but I know God has his plans that are the best ultimately so I'll be okay. Keep me posted!

Well, letters are out, I unfortunately did not get in, hope you all did!

I'm just over here checking my email Q5 min anyone else? í ½í¸¬

Totally agree! I just keep praying that I get in! My first interview was awesome and the second was just ok. Everyone was really really nice and that makes it even harder if I don't get in. I got asked a few clinical questions after I brought up my unit and all that we do, but they weren't bad. The current students were also awesome to talk to and made me feel more at ease.

Congrats!!!

If you're willing to commute to Dallas, check with Parkland and their observation program, A lot of paperwork but my shadowing experiences were amazing. You can find all the info on their website.

YES! I just had my interview on Tuesday and its ALL I can think about! I just want it so badly and I keep dissecting the interview and driving myself crazy, it's definitely much easier said than done to distract myself. Good luck and hoping you and I both get into our programs. :)

I think your stats look great and you'll get an interview. I would say go ahead and get your CSC, not a hard test if you're in CV and have already taken the CCRN, just study the $10 packet from the AACN and whatever CV stuff you studied for CCRN and you should be golden. Also might consider CMC, I feel having both of these certs will far outweigh your GRE score (actually the same as mine, other than I got a 4 on the writing), but I applied to a school that didn't care too much about the GRE.

HOLY COW 312 on the GRE?! Great job Zach!

Hey everyone! Somehow I stopped getting notifications for this thread. Got my interview email. August 28th! gahhh so excited. Now to find a really nice suit cause ya know look good feel good. Congrats to everyone that got an interview and those who didn't just remember there's a reason for everything and you will find your right place.

Hi everyone! Thanks cowboymedic for telling me about this thread. This is my first time applying, taking the GRE Sunday í ½í¹ˆ, really not looking forward to it. Stats: 3 years CVICU (lvads, ecmo, lots of fresh hearts), 1 year SICU, 3.68 gpa, CCRN-CSC. I've got everything submitted except my GRE.

Hi CRNAs! I would really love to shadow you! If you're in the DFW area even far out, I will make it work. I work for a Baylor facility that only employs MDAs unfortunately and really want to shadow a CRNA so I can talk about schooling, how your experience prepared you, the politics etc. I plan on shadowing the MDAs at my hospital but I just won't feel comfortable making this career leap without chatting with some CRNAs. I promise not to be a waste of your time and will totally buy you lunch, coffee, WHATEVER! Thanks!

OMG I love this!!! Each line I just got more and more excited. I keep trying to get a really good idea of what CRNAs do and this really helps. Thank You! It's so exciting to have someone crashing, who you get to help save and then seeing them stable so fast!

Hi everyone, I am looking at my grad school options and something that appeals to me is CRNA, however I want to REALLY see what they do and hopefully do many shadowing experiences to ensure this is the right move for me. I've done tons of research, but to me, just as with being an ICU nurse, you never know what it's like until you experience it first hand. I work at a specialty CV hospital and we only have anesthesiologists no CRNAs, anyone set up a shadow experience somewhere other than their hospital? How did you go about it? I called my local anesthesia staffing group but never heard back. TIA!
