Hello, I am a future CRNA hopeful, but I am wondering if I have dug a hole to deep to climb out from. I have an ASN with around 2.88 gp from 4 years ago. (I was 17 yrs old when accepted, 19 when graduated..ie:young and dumb) I started a RN-BSN program the same month I started my first full time job. I took 16 hours along with full time work as a brand new nurse. Needless to say I did not far well. Failed one RN-BSN class from lack of trying and being overwhelmed. This brought my gpa to around 2.66. I took a break from school for a semester. I changed my focus from running wild as 20 yr olds do to school, work and my future. I changed schools for my RN-BSN to a more academic university, and finished with a 3.75 gpa. I have been a nurse in a Surgical ICU in a major teaching hospital (actually affiliated with the CRNA program I hope to apply for) for 2 years. I have my CCRN and scored 310 on the GRE. I am paticulary interested in Union University or UT Memphis if anyone has any insight, but I am open to all opinions in general on my situation. I want to know if I have a chance of being competitive with these stats? So basically in a nut shell ADN: 2.88 (was young and carefree) immediately after... RN-BSN: failed 1 nursing class...2.66 (still young and dumb) took 1 semester off to reboot RN-BSN at a more academic school: 3.75 GRE: 310 CCRN 2 years in SICU at a major teaching hospital Thank you for your time and comments
